Panel de parcheo EFB Elektronik 37737.8

The EFB Elektronik 37737.8 patch panel is a 1U rack-mounted module designed for structured cabling systems that use Cat6a cabling. It provides eight ports and supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s. With S/UTP shielding and a compact grey housing, this patch panel integrates into standard 19-inch racks and is intended for professional network environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference and organized cable termination.

Advantages

The patch panel's S/UTP shielding improves resistance to external interference, helping to maintain signal integrity in dense or electrically noisy installations. Its 1U form factor saves rack space while offering eight clearly labelled ports for straightforward cable management. The grey finish offers a neutral appearance that blends with common rack equipment. Support for Cat6a lets the panel handle higher bandwidth demands and future-proofs cabling for faster Ethernet links.

Suitable for

• Small and medium data racks in offices and server rooms
• Structured cabling installations using Cat6a cabling
• Environments where shielding (S/UTP) is required to reduce interference
• Centralized patching points for switches, routers, and network appliances

Key specifications

• Form factor: 1U, compatible with 19-inch racks
• Ports: 8 RJ45 ports for Cat6a connections
• Shielding: S/UTP (screened twisted pair) to reduce EMI
• Maximum data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Colour: grey

How to use

Mount the patch panel into a standard 19-inch rack occupying one unit of rack height. Terminate Cat6a cables on the rear of the module according to the chosen wiring standard (T568A or T568B), ensuring proper shielding continuity for S/UTP connections. Route and secure cables to avoid stress on terminations and use clear labelling on the front ports to document connections. Connect front ports to network switches or patch cords as required for your network layout.

Recommendations

Maintain shielding continuity by using shielded patch cords and grounding the panel properly where applicable. Keep cable lengths and bundle sizes within recommended limits for Cat6a to preserve performance, and perform certification or testing after installation to verify data rates and signal quality.
