Patch-paneeli EFB Elektronik BA71901L24OM4 1U LC OM4 harmaa metalli rack-asennus

The EFB Elektronik BA71901L24OM4 1U LC OM4 Grey Metal Rack Mount patch panel is designed for structured fiber optic cabling in rack-mounted networking systems. It accepts 12 LC ports optimized for OM4 multimode fiber and provides a compact 1U housing suitable for data centers, server rooms and telecom cabinets. Constructed from metal with a grey finish, the panel measures 483 mm wide, 44.5 mm high and 244 mm deep to match standard 19-inch rack installations and to support tidy cable routing and port identification.

Advantages

The metal construction offers mechanical stability and shielding for fiber connections while the 1U form factor conserves rack space. LC connectors provide high-density termination for multimode OM4 fiber, enabling improved bandwidth and reduced modal dispersion compared with lower-grade multimode types. A standardized 483 mm width ensures compatibility with common racks and racks with mounting rails, and the panel’s 12-port layout simplifies network organization and patching workflows.

Suitable for

• Rack-mounted fiber distribution in data centers and server rooms
• Telecommunications and network closets requiring OM4 multimode connectivity
• High-density cabling environments where space-efficient 1U solutions are needed
• Projects that use LC-terminated multimode fiber links

Key specifications

• Form factor: 1U rack-mount module
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Fiber type compatibility: OM4 multimode
• Number of ports: 12
• Material: metal housing
• Finish/color: grey
• Dimensions (W×H×D): 483 mm × 44.5 mm × 244 mm

How to use

Install the patch panel in a standard 19-inch rack using the mounting holes provided. Route incoming OM4 multimode fiber cables to the rear of the panel and terminate them to LC connectors, or use pre-terminated pigtails and splice as required. Secure cable runs with appropriate strain relief and cable management accessories to prevent stress on fiber terminations. Label ports according to your network plan to maintain clear identification and efficient patching.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, use OM4-certified fiber cable and LC connectors that meet industry loss and return loss specifications. Avoid tight bends and tension on fiber runs; maintain recommended bend radii. Perform visual inspection and cleaning of LC endfaces before making connections and consider patch cords with protective boots for frequent re-patching.
