DSIT DS-10Patch6-12UTP 10-Inch 12-Port UTP CAT6 Patch Panel, 1U Rack Mount, Black

With 12 RJ45 ports on a compact 10-inch footprint, this DSIT patch panel delivers CAT6 performance in a space-saving 1U form factor. The unshielded design and gold-plated contacts ensure reliable gigabit connectivity for small office or home networks.

Overview

The DSIT DS-10Patch6-12UTP is a 12-port patch panel engineered for 10-inch rack installations. It terminates unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cabling with 110-type IDC blocks, supporting both T568A and T568B wiring schemes. The panel is constructed from SPCC steel with a black finish, providing durability and a professional appearance. Each RJ45 port features gold over nickel plating for superior conductivity and corrosion resistance, rated for 750 mating cycles. The IDC terminals accept 22-26 AWG solid wire and are rated for 200 punch-down cycles, ensuring long-term reliability. The panel is RoHS compliant and meets UL 94V-0 flammability standards.
