Recommendations

Use the panel with Cat5e FTP cables and ensure proper grounding of the cable shield to maintain shielding effectiveness. For higher bandwidth needs, consider Cat6/6a-rated panels and cabling. Keep cable bends within recommended radii and maintain clear cable management to facilitate future changes and troubleshooting.
