What's special about these patch panels?
Signamax™ Modular High-Density Patch Panels with Feed-Thru Couplers offer professional installers an easy-to-terminate shielded or unshielded solution for expanding their networks. These compact, high coupler count patch panels are ideal for applications that have limited space, yet require high-density network connectivity. Each panel is pre-equipped with 24 or 48 inline couplers rated and tested to exceed today's TIA/EIA specifications. |
- Includes a snap-in rear cable management bar to improve organization and cable strain relief
- Shielded or unshielded couplers are specially engineered to provide enhanced plug to jack connection integrity, while protecting against damage from improperly inserting 4 or 6 position connectors
- Each coupler has been rated to withstand at least 750 connector insertions to ensure the highest level of connectivity and system reliability
- Constructed from high-quality steel to provided maximum strength and durability for fast-paced environments
- Features a front labeling area and individually numbered ports for quick and easy identification
- UL 94V-0 fire rated
- UL listed
- FCC rated
- IEC and EN compliant
- Exceeds ANSI/TIA/EIA specifications
- IEEE compliant
