Patch panel Digitus CAT 6 neecranat DN-91624U-CR

The DIGITUS® unshielded CAT6 patch panel supports future-oriented standards and high-end build quality for network installations. Available in 16- and 24-port (1U) or 48-port (2U) versions, it is designed to meet Link Performance Class E up to 250 MHz and complies with ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173. The panel is UL certified and features a 1.5 mm galvanized cold-rolled steel housing suitable for 19" rack mounting.

Advantages

The CAT6 patch panel provides reliable 1GBase-T and PoE support for structured cabling environments, with color-coded LSA termination compatible with EIA/TIA 568 A and B standards. Robust mechanical construction, nickel-plated contacts with gold plating, and standardized components ensure consistent electrical performance and long service life. Its rack-compatible design and quick cable latches simplify installation and cable management.

How to use

Mount the patch panel in a standard 19" rack (1U for 16/24 ports, 2U for 48 ports). Prepare cables to the appropriate length and terminate each conductor on the LSA strips according to the EIA/TIA 568 A or B color code printed on the panel. Use the quick latches to secure cables and ensure reliable strain relief. Verify correct wiring and test each port for continuity and performance up to 250 MHz before placing the system into operational use. Follow local grounding practices where applicable; an earthing wire is not included.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use CAT6-rated patch cords and ensure installation follows ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173 guidelines. Perform certification testing after installation to confirm compliance with Link Performance Class E and to validate PoE delivery and 1GBase-T operation.
