Latest company news about what is RJ45 patch panel . Cat5e  cat6 cat6a patch panels

RJ45 copper patch panel, different from fiber patch panel, is designed for both shielded and unshielded copper cables like Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a and Cat7. It is commonly used in a local area network (LAN) as a mounted hardware assembly that contains ports to connect and manage incoming and outgoing Ethernet cables.

The network patch panel is typically made with 8-pin modular ports on one side and 110-insulation displacement connector blocks on the other side. Patch cables coming into the panel are terminated the insulation displacement connector. On the opposite side, the 8-pin modular connector plugs into the port which corresponds to the terminated wires. With the Ethernet patch panel, each pair of cables has an independent port. So copper patch panels offer simple and efficient interconnection in Ethernet applications.

 

Ethernet RJ45 patch panel is an ideal method to create a flexible, reliable and tidy cabling system no matter for home network or data centers. Today, various styles of copper patch panels can be found in the market, such as shielded or unshielded patch panel, flat or angled patch panel, etc. And the configurations can also be different from numbers of ports, such as 12-port, 24-port, 48-port patch panel, etc. So how to select the most suitable one for your applications ?

 

Using a pre-terminated solution in applications beyond the data center hasn’t typically been an option due to large diameter sizes, cable bundles that are bogged down with RJ45 jacks on both ends and the difficulty associated with determining cable lengths early enough in the project to get the pre-terminated solutions you need .

Types of RJ45 Patch Panel
RJ45 patch panel can be classified into different types on the basis of different factors.

By Categories of Ethernet Cables


The most common copper patch panels classified by categories of Ethernet cables are Cat5e patch panels, Cat6 patch panels and Cat6a patch panels.

 

Cat5e Patch Panel

Cat5e patch panel is compliant with TIA/EIA 568 industry specifications and is used for LAN transmission. Generally, this type of copper patch panel is available in 6-port and 8-port module groupings, in 8, 12, 24, and 48-port sizes. With numbers labeled on ports, it’s easy for cable organization. 24-port Cat5e patch panel is the most popular in the market, which has punch down and feed-through patch panel for customer choice. FS.com Cat5e patch panels are made from steel materials so that they can stand up even the most extreme conditions. For more information about Cat5e patch panel installation, please refer to How to Wire Cat5e Patch Panels?

 

Cat6 Patch Panel

Cat6 patch panel is specially designed for use in Gigabit Ethernet applications. It also meets or exceeds the TIA/EIA 568 industry specification, and fits to use with different kinds of Cat6 cables and accessories. Besides, Cat6 patch panel features high-density and provides the performance needed for present and next generation data communications networks and applications. These high-density patch panels are available in 12-port, 24-port, 48-port versions, and feature enhanced front and rear labeling features for easy circuit identification.

 

Cat6a Patch Panel

Cat6a patch panel supports all performance requirements of IEEE 802.3an (10GBase-T) and TIA Augmented Category 6 (6a) cabling specifications without requiring the use of individual jacks for the panel termination. This RJ45 patch panel can be used to future-proof your network connection for 10 Gigabit Ethernet. And this Ethernet patch panel can be installed effortlessly in universal 19" racks/cabinets, or wall mount brackets with 1U standard height.

 

By Construction of Ethernet Cables: Shielded vs. Unishielded Patch Panels


Shielded and unshielded RJ45 patch panels are required to match with the shielded and unshielded copper cable applications. Shielded patch panels are designed for high EMI (Electro Magnetic Interference) environments. These RJ45 patch panels can protect your high speed network from noise and EMI especially when the copper cables run near power cables.

Shielded patch panels are basically more expensive than unshielded copper patch panels. Someone may wonder whether they can use unshielded patch panel for shielded cable. To be honest, it depends on the environment in which your cable will run through. If the place has no high power electrical wires, you can go with unshielded patch panel. On the flip side, if you are in a noisy environment like using arc welders or near high power radio transmitters, then you’d better select the shielded one.

 

By Port Number: 24-Port RJ45 Patch Panel vs. 48-Port Patch Panel


Ports are one of the most important of patch panel components, which are provided for data to enter and exit the panel. RJ45 patch panels typically consist of four or eight modules of eight ports each, for a total of 24 or 48 ports respectively. The 24-port patch panel is 1RU, the 32 and 48-port patch panel is 2RU, and the 96-port is 4RU. The following will show the detailed dimensions of 24-port patch panel and 48-port patch panel.

 

By Termination Method: Punch Down vs. Feed-through Patch Panel


Punch down patch panel is a kind of network patch panel that should punch down Ethernet cable on the rear side. On the front plate, RJ45 ports can be directly connected to Ethernet copper cable. However, feed-through patch panel provides patching without punching down the wires to the ports. Each feed-through patch panel has both built-in RJ45 ports on the front and rear side. Nowadays, the feed-through patch panel is more acceptable than punch down patch panel in that the Ethernet patch cables can be inserted into the ports directly in an easy and fast way .
