DIGITUS Patch Panel CAT6A, apantallado, 12 puertos, 1/2U, montaje en rack de 10", negro RAL 9005

The DIGITUS CAT 6A Class EA 12-port 0.5U Patch Panel is a shielded, rack-mountable 10" panel designed for high-density structured cabling. With a 0.5U height and 12 shielded RJ45 ports, the panel supports Cat6a installations and complies with 802.3af and 802.3at (PoE/PoE+) standards. The steel housing provides complete shielding and 360° shield coverage for improved link quality, while the compact design enables efficient use of rack space.

Advantages

The panel occupies only 0.5U, allowing two units to provide 24 ports in a single 1U rack space. It features complete housing shielding with a central grounding connector and shield contact to ensure reliable electromagnetic protection. IDC strips simplify cable termination, and the unit offers dielectric strength up to 1500 VDC between contacts and ground. Wall mounting is possible for flexible installation.

Suitable for

• High-density network racks where rack space is limited
• Cat6a installations requiring shielded connections
• Environments using PoE and PoE+ powered devices
• Structured cabling in small server rooms, closets, and edge cabinets

How to use

Mount the patch panel in a 10" rack or on a wall using compatible screws. Terminate Cat6a shielded cables to the IDC strips following the panel's labeling and wiring scheme. Connect the central grounding point to the rack or building ground to ensure proper shielding. Patch required devices to the front RJ45 ports using shielded patch cables. Verify PoE compatibility and power budgets when connecting PoE or PoE+ devices.

Recommendations

Install shielded Cat6a cables and use shielded patch cords for end-to-end protection. Ensure the central grounding connector is properly bonded to the rack or earth ground to maintain electromagnetic shielding performance. Confirm power requirements and switch capabilities before connecting PoE/PoE+ devices.
