METZ CONNECT 130921-00-E 1U 24-porttinen suojattu patch-paneeli, Cat.6A, vaaleanharmaa 130921-00-E-90

For high-density copper networks where performance cannot be compromised, the METZ CONNECT 130921-00-E delivers a 24-port Cat.6A shielded patch panel in a slim 1U form factor. Unlike unloaded panels that demand separate module purchases, this unit arrives as a complete, ready-to-populate solution with integrated LSA termination blocks and a robust steel housing. It supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and all current PoE standards, making it a future-proof backbone for enterprise and industrial installations.

Highlights

• 24 shielded RJ45 ports in 1U rack space for maximum density
• Cat.6A / Class EA performance up to 500 MHz, 10GBASE-T ready
• Supports PoE, PoE+, and 4PPoE (IEEE 802.3af/at/bt) without degradation
• Tool-free LSA (IDC) termination for fast, reliable installation
• Integrated grounding connection and gold-plated contacts for long-term signal integrity
• Robust powder-coated steel housing in light grey (RAL 7035)

In daily use

Installation is straightforward: mount the panel in any standard 19-inch rack, route cables from the rear, and punch down conductors using a standard LSA tool. The rear cable entry keeps the front clean and accessible for patching. The shielded design ensures excellent alien crosstalk resistance, even in bundles with high PoE loads. With an operating temperature range from -40 to +70 °C, this panel is suitable for both climate-controlled data centers and harsh industrial environments.
