Signamax 48458-C6C 48-Port Category 6 Patch Panel

Overview

The Signamax 48458-C6C is a 48-port, Category 6, unscreened patch panel designed for structured cabling deployments. It occupies 2 Rack Units (RMU) of vertical space in standard 19-inch racks, providing a centralized termination point for network cabling infrastructure. This panel is engineered to support high-density network environments, ensuring reliable connectivity for 10/100/1000Base-T networks and beyond. Its design facilitates efficient cable management and simplifies network troubleshooting by consolidating cable terminations.

Compatibility

This patch panel is compatible with standard Category 6 cabling systems. It is designed to terminate 23-26 AWG solid or stranded conductors. It integrates seamlessly with standard 19-inch rack systems and can be used with a wide range of network switches, routers, and other networking equipment that require Cat 6 termination points. It is suitable for use in enterprise data centers, telecommunications rooms, and commercial office environments where robust network infrastructure is critical.

Installation Notes

Termination of individual cables onto the rear punch-down blocks requires a standard 110-style punch-down tool. Ensure proper conductor seating to maintain signal integrity and meet Category 6 performance standards. The panel is designed for rack mounting using standard M6 screws and cage nuts (not included). Proper cable management, including the use of cable ties and horizontal/vertical managers, is recommended to maintain airflow and prevent strain on terminations.
