Panduit CFP2BL Classic Series 2-Port Mini-Com Faceplate
Overview
The Panduit CFP2BL is a single-gang, two-port vertical faceplate from the Pan-Net® Classic Series, designed to accept two Mini-Com™ keystone modules in a clean, wall-mounted format. At 4.5 in. tall and 2.75 in. wide, it fits standard single-gang boxes and delivers a professional termination point for copper structured cabling systems in commercial offices, hospitality installs, and light industrial environments. If you are standardizing on Mini-Com modules across your horizontal cabling infrastructure, the CFP2BL keeps the aesthetic consistent and the installation straightforward.
Key Features
- Two Mini-Com Port Openings: Accepts any standard Panduit Mini-Com™ module — data, voice, coax, or AV — so you can mix port types at a single outlet without running separate faceplates to the same box. Saves conduit fill and keeps wall clutter minimal.
- Classic Series Single-Gang Profile (4.5 in. × 2.75 in. / 114.3 mm × 69.9 mm): Sized to drop directly onto a standard single-gang electrical box, no adapter plate required. The vertical orientation keeps both ports accessible even in dense furniture-wall configurations where horizontal real estate is tight.
- ABS Construction: The acrylonitrile butadiene styrene body resists everyday impact and cleaning chemicals common in office and light-industrial spaces — more durable than painted-metal alternatives at this price point, and it won't corrode in humid telecom closets.
- Black Finish: Matches dark furniture systems, black cable management channels, and modern open-plan office aesthetics where white faceplates stand out for the wrong reasons. Competitor cross-reference 41080-2EP for integrators migrating from other Classic-format systems.
- Pan-Net® Family Compatibility: Drops into the broader Panduit structured cabling ecosystem — same gang size and module interface as other Classic Series faceplates, so a single stocking SKU covers a consistent look across a multi-room rollout.
- Package Quantity of 1, Carton Quantity of 10: Order the exact count you need per outlet, or buy by the carton of 10 for multi-drop deployments. No minimum bundle forces excess inventory on small jobs.
Integration & Compatibility
The CFP2BL is part of Panduit's structured cabling copper-systems line and accepts any Mini-Com™ module in the Classic Series form factor. This includes Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6A, and Cat8 keystone jacks, as well as coax, fiber, and AV inserts — giving you flexibility to terminate mixed-media runs at a single faceplate. Pair it with a compatible surface-mount box if recessed gang boxes are not available, and review your patch panel layout to confirm module counts before ordering. For multi-port or angled-entry requirements, step up to a higher-port-count Classic Series faceplate in the same family.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How many modules does the CFP2BL accept?
A: Two Mini-Com™ modules in a vertical single-gang layout.
Q: What material is the CFP2BL made from?
A: ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) plastic in a black finish.
Q: What are the overall dimensions of the CFP2BL?
A: 4.5 in. (114.3 mm) tall by 2.75 in. (69.9 mm) wide — standard single-gang size.
Q: Does the CFP2BL work with non-Panduit Mini-Com modules?
A: The faceplate is designed for Panduit Mini-Com™ modules. Third-party module compatibility is not verified in manufacturer documentation; confirm fit before specifying mixed-brand configurations.
Q: What is the carton quantity for the CFP2BL?
A: Cartons contain 10 units. Individual package quantity is 1, so you can order the exact count needed.
The CFP2BL is as unglamorous as structured cabling gets, but its 4.5 in. × 2.75 in. ABS body is the kind of detail that bites you on a 200-drop office fit-out if you spec the wrong faceplate family. I've seen integrators mix Classic and Mini-Com Plus Series on the same floor and end up with modules that technically seat but won't latch — so confirming the Classic Series designation on the CFP2BL before ordering at scale matters.
Technical Highlights:
- Vertical 2-Port Layout: Both Mini-Com openings stack vertically in a 114.3 mm tall body — leaves room for a second faceplate or cable routing above and below on tighter gang-box clusters near workstation furniture legs.
- ABS Body: Handles janitorial spray-downs and repeated patch cord insertions without the paint-chip degradation you get on cheaper stamped-metal alternatives. Relevant on hospitality or healthcare projects with aggressive cleaning protocols.
- Carton Pack of 10: At the per-unit price point, buying by the carton is the rational move on any project with more than a handful of outlets. The individual package-of-1 option covers punch-list extras without forcing a full carton purchase.
Deployment Considerations:
- Confirm your gang box depth before ordering — the CFP2BL's 2.75 in. width is single-gang standard, but shallow retrofit boxes in older commercial buildouts can conflict with deeper keystone modules seated behind the faceplate.
- The black ABS finish is fixed; if your project specs white or ivory faceplates throughout, this SKU is not a match — source the correct color variant from the Classic Series family before the finish schedule is locked.
Best fit for open-plan commercial office refreshes and hospitality guest-room AV/data outlets where a consistent black finish, Mini-Com module flexibility, and single-gang form factor are all specified from day one.
