Panduit CFPE10EI-2GY Mini-Com Executive Series 10-Port Faceplate
The Panduit CFPE10EI-2GY delivers high-density termination in a double-gang form factor, supporting up to ten Mini-Com modules for converged voice, data, and AV installations. Designed for NEMA standard double-gang electrical boxes, this Executive Series faceplate provides the port density required in conference rooms, training facilities, and IDF/MDF environments where wall space is limited and circuit count is high. The raised rail perimeter design protects installed modules from impact damage, while the integrated label pocket simplifies circuit identification per TIA-606-B labeling standards. Electric Ivory finish coordinates with commercial-grade wall plates across mixed-vendor environments.
Key Features
- 10-port capacity accepts any Mini-Com module (copper, fiber, A/V, USB)
- Double-gang NEMA standard mounting for 4" × 4" electrical boxes
- Raised rail outer frame protects modules from accidental contact
- Integrated label pocket for circuit identification and documentation
- ABS construction provides impact resistance and dimensional stability
- Electric Ivory color matches legacy commercial wall plate installations
The raised rail design extends 0.062" beyond the module face, creating a protective barrier that reduces the risk of RJ45 tab breakage and fiber connector damage during furniture moves or equipment carts passing within inches of the wall. This is critical in high-traffic environments like hospital corridors, classroom walls adjacent to desk rows, and data center hot aisles where rack doors swing open near structured cabling termination points. The label pocket accepts standard adhesive labels or embossed tape, supporting both temporary construction-phase labeling and permanent as-built documentation without requiring separate label holders or tape applied directly to the faceplate surface.
ABS thermoplastic construction provides a balance of rigidity and impact absorption — the faceplate won't crack under overtightened screws (common with polycarbonate alternatives) yet maintains flatness across the full 4.5" width without bowing when all ten ports are populated with locking modules. The 114.3mm × 114.3mm footprint mounts to any NEMA-compliant double-gang mud ring, aligning with electrical rough-in standards used across commercial construction since the 1960s. This allows structured cabling installers to use the same box types, depths, and mounting hardware as electrical contractors, reducing coordination errors and eliminating the need for specialty low-voltage brackets in retrofit scenarios.
Deploy this faceplate in applications where port count exceeds six but a triple-gang opening isn't available — typical in conference rooms with two wall-mounted displays (each requiring HDMI, USB-C, and network), huddle spaces with PoE phones and wireless access point drops, or classroom instructor stations serving document cameras, lecture capture systems, and campus network uplinks. The Mini-Com system's modular architecture lets you populate only the modules you need today (perhaps six ports initially) while reserving the remaining four positions for future adds without replacing the faceplate. RoHS compliance supports LEED v4.1 Materials & Resources credits (MRc3: Building Product Disclosure and Optimization) when documented in the construction submittal package, meeting green building material disclosure requirements without requiring separate environmental product declarations.
