InLine 10 inch patch panel Cat.6A 0.5U 12-port, with dust protection, grey

The InLine 10" patch panel Cat.6A 0.5U 12-port in grey is a rack-mountable, fully shielded panel designed for structured network cabling. It provides 12 consecutively numbered RJ45 ports and accepts Cat.6A cabling. Each port features an integrated dust protection flap that folds inward when a network cable is inserted, helping to protect contacts from coarse dust. Connection to installation cabling is made via LSA insulation displacement connectors.

Advantages

The fully shielded housing reduces electromagnetic interference for Cat.6A installations. Consecutive numbering of the RJ45 sockets simplifies port identification and cable management. The integrated dust protection preserves contact quality by reducing dust ingress, and the LSA insulation displacement connectors allow reliable, tool-assisted termination of up to 12 installation cables.

Suitable for

• Rack-mounted network infrastructure in small server rooms or comms cabinets
• Cat.6A structured cabling installations requiring shielded connections
• Patching and port distribution in office and data centre environments

How to use

Mount the 10" patch panel in a compatible rack or cabinet and secure it with appropriate fasteners. Terminate each installation cable into the LSA insulation displacement connectors following the colour code for Cat.6A wiring. Insert patch cords into the numbered RJ45 sockets; the dust protection flaps will fold inward automatically when a plug is inserted. Verify connections and shielding continuity as part of standard network testing procedures.

Recommendations

For best performance, use Cat.6A shielded patch cords and maintain proper grounding of the rack and panel. Test each port after installation with a certified cable tester to confirm signal integrity and correct termination.
