InLine Patch panel Cat.6A 0.5U 6-port, table/wall/rail, black with dust prot.

The InLine Patch panel Cat.6A 0.5U 6-port black with dust protection is a fully shielded desktop patch panel designed for Cat.6A installations. It provides six RJ45 ports with consecutive numbering and accepts up to six installation cables via LSA insulation displacement connectors. Each socket includes an integrated dust protection flap that folds inward when an Ethernet cable is inserted. The unit has a 0.5U height (23 mm) and is intended for organized rack-mounted network setups.

Advantages

This Cat.6A patch panel supports high-speed structured cabling and offers full shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference. Numbered RJ45 ports simplify identification and management. LSA insulation displacement connectors allow reliable and space-efficient cable terminations without separate screw connections. The integrated dust protection helps prevent coarse dust from contacting the contacts when ports are not in use.

Suitable for

• Small server rooms and network racks requiring Cat.6A connectivity
• Desktop or wall-mounted patching applications with limited height (0.5U)
• Environments where dust protection for RJ45 ports is desired

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat.6A
• Ports: 6 × RJ45
• Connector type: LSA insulation displacement
• Shielding: Fully shielded
• Height: 0.5U (23 mm)
• Colour: Black

How to use

Mount the patch panel in the rack or on a suitable desktop bracket according to the rack manufacturer’s instructions. Strip and prepare each installation cable, then terminate conductors into the LSA insulation displacement connectors following the color code for Cat.6A. Verify that the integrated dust flaps are closed when ports are not in use; they will fold inward automatically when an RJ45 plug is inserted. After termination, test each port with an appropriate network tester to confirm connectivity and performance.

Recommendations

Use Cat.6A-rated cables and follow standard installation practices to achieve intended performance. Keep unused ports closed with the dust protection flaps to minimize contamination. For best results in high-interference environments, ensure proper grounding of the rack and the panel’s shield.
