What is a patch panel?
A patch panel, often used in network and telecommunications systems, is a hardware assembly featuring multiple ports to manage and facilitate cable connections. It serves as a central point where all network cables converge, simplifying the organization and routing of cable paths. Here’s a breakdown of its key aspects:
Functionality:
- Centralization: A patch panel centralizes cables in one location, making it easier to manage the network.
- Organization: It helps organize cables, crucial in complex networks with numerous connections.
- Flexibility: Allows for easy changes and additions to the network without the need to run new cables all the way to the equipment.
Types of Patch Panels:
Copper/RJ45 Patch Panels
- Primary Use: RJ45 patch panels are predominantly used for Ethernet over copper cabling. They are the standard for local area network (LAN) cabling.
- Connection Type: These panels typically support Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a, and sometimes Cat7 Ethernet cables, which are terminated in RJ45 connectors.
- Applications: RJ45 patch panels are widely used in both commercial and residential settings for data and voice applications.
Fiber Optic Patch Panels
- Primary Use: Fiber patch panels are designed for managing transmission over longer distances than copper cables.
- Connection Type: They accommodate various types of fiber connectors, such as LC, SC, ST, and MTP/MPO. The choice of connectors depends on the type of fiber optic cable (single-mode or multi-mode) and the network’s requirements.
- Applications: These panels are essential in data centers, telecommunication networks, and any installation where high-speed data transmission is critical.
Coaxial Patch Panels
- Primary Use: Coax patch panels are used for managing coaxial cables, which are commonly used for television, satellite, and broadband communications.
- Connection Type: Coax patch panels usually feature F-type or BNC connectors, depending on the application. These connectors are designed to maintain the shielding that coaxial cables provide.
- Applications: They are used in video surveillance systems, cable TV networks, and any application requiring the transmission of radio frequency (RF) signals.
What is a RJ45 patch panel?
Selecting the right RJ45 patch panel for your networking needs involves considering several factors to ensure compatibility, performance, and scalability. Here are the key points to consider:
Unshielded vs. Shielded Patch Panels:
- Unshielded Patch Panels (UTP): These are the most common type and are used in environments where electromagnetic interference (EMI) is not a significant concern. They are easier to install and less expensive than shielded panels.
- Shielded Patch Panels (STP): These panels are used in environments with high EMI, such as near heavy machinery or in industrial areas. They have shielding to protect the integrity of the signal against interference.
Category-Based Patch Panels:
- Cat5e Patch Panels: Suitable for networks with speeds up to 1 Gbps. They are commonly used in small offices or residential installations.
- Cat6 Patch Panels: Designed for networks with speeds up to 10 Gbps over short distances (up to 55 meters). They offer better performance and reduced crosstalk compared to Cat5e.
- Cat6a Patch Panels: These are an advanced version of Cat6, supporting speeds up to 10 Gbps over longer distances (up to 100 meters) and with better shielding.
- Cat7 Patch Panels: Used for ultra-high-speed applications, supporting frequencies up to 600 MHz and are suitable for 10 GbE networks.
Rack Size & Ports Number:
Rack Unit Size (RU): A rack unit is a standard measurement for server and network rack space, with 1 RU equivalent to 1.75 inches in height. Patch panels are
designed to conform to these standard sizes for easy integration into existing rack setups. Ports Number: The number of ports on a patch panel
dictates its size in terms of rack units. Common configurations are:
- 24-Port Patch Panel: Usually occupies 1 RU. This compact size makes it a popular choice for smaller networks or those with limited space.
- 32 and 48-Port Patch Panels: Typically require 2 RUs. These panels are suitable for medium-sized networks, offering a balance between port density and space usage.
- 96-Port Patch Panel: Occupies about 4 RUs. This high-density option is ideal for large-scale networks with extensive cabling requirements.
Flat vs. Angled Patch Panels:
- Flat Patch Panels: These are the standard format where the ports are in a straight line. They are more common and fit easily in most rack spaces.
- Angled Patch Panels: These have an angled design, which helps with cable management, reducing cable strain and improving port accessibility.
Punch Down vs. Keystone Patch Panels:
- Punch-Down Panels: These have a punch-down block at the back where individual wires are terminated.
- Keystone Panels: These are modular and use keystone jacks for each port, allowing for more flexibility in the type of port used.
High-Quality Patch Panel From ZION COMMUNICATION
ZION COMMUNICATION not only upholds the philosophy of providing customers with high-quality patch panel but is also able to implement and enforce methods in its production.
Quality Control System
In order to provide our customers with patch panel that are accurate and meet their performance requirements, the following steps are taken during production to control quality.
First, and most importantly, our salesmen will first communicate with our customers to clarify the quality requirements that they need for their order, and then carry out the following quality process control according to this requirement.
1, IQC (Incoming quality control) of raw material
Our quality inspectors will strictly inspect each batch of incoming materials according to industry high standards.
2,IPQC(In-process quality control) of patch panel
Patch panel production process mainly consists of ten processes:
1.Product design – 2.Cutting – 3.Stamping processing – 4.Bending processing – 5.Soldering connection – 6.Process inspection – 7.Surface coating – 8.Inspection- 9.Overall assembly – 10.Finished product inspection.
In order to produce high quality cabinets, there are very strict requirements for each step.
3, Finished Inspection.When your order is completed, we will check the patch panel specification, electrical properties, physical properties, product appearance and packaging (including printing, color, labeling, etc.), quantity and other important information in conjunction with PI, production technical sheet, packaging, labeling and other confirmed documents. We ensure that our deliveries are accurate in this way.
Qualified By International Certifications
When selecting qualified third-party accessory manufacturers, their ability to provide compliance with common industry certifications, such as CE (Building Power), FCC (Federal Communications Commission)REACH, DELTA, and ROHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) standards, is an important consideration.
