Panduit CFP4SY Mini-Com Stainless Steel Faceplate, 4-Port
The Panduit CFP4SY is a single-gang stainless steel faceplate designed for commercial structured cabling installations requiring four Mini-Com module ports. Engineered for high-traffic environments where wall plates take physical abuse—lobbies, classrooms, industrial floors, healthcare corridors—this faceplate delivers impact resistance and corrosion protection that outlasts painted steel or plastic alternatives. Mounts to standard NEMA single-gang openings and accepts any Panduit Mini-Com module (copper, fiber, A/V, USB) for flexible endpoint configuration. Integrated label space supports site documentation standards. RoHS-compliant construction meets procurement requirements for federal, healthcare, and enterprise projects.
Key Features
- 4-port capacity supports Mini-Com modules in any combination: copper keystones (Cat5e/6/6A), fiber adapters (LC/SC), HDMI, USB, audio jacks
- Stainless steel construction resists impact, corrosion, and tampering in public-access and industrial settings
- Single-gang form factor fits standard electrical boxes and low-voltage rings
- Flush-mount design with smooth metallic finish complements commercial interiors
- Built-in label area accepts adhesive identification tags for circuit documentation
- RoHS-compliant materials meet environmental procurement mandates
Stainless steel faceplates serve environments where wall plates face repeated contact, cleaning chemicals, or deliberate abuse. The CFP4SY's metal construction absorbs impact without cracking—critical in schools, hospitals, retail spaces, and manufacturing floors where plastic plates fail within months. The metallic finish resists discoloration from UV exposure and cleaning agents, maintaining appearance over 10+ year installation lifecycles. Four-port density supports typical workstation drops (two data + one voice + one spare) or specialty applications like conference-room A/V plates mixing HDMI, USB-C, and copper in a single gang. Compatible with Panduit's full Mini-Com module family: Cat5e/6/6A shielded and unshielded keystones, LC/SC fiber adapters, RCA/3.5mm audio jacks, HDMI/DisplayPort modules, USB Type-A/C, and blank inserts. Snap-in module retention requires no tools; field reconfiguration takes seconds when service needs change.
Integrators deploy the CFP4SY in office build-outs, hospital patient rooms, classroom technology upgrades, and datacenter access points where single-gang boxes limit physical space but four connections are required. Pair with Panduit's color-coded Mini-Com modules to create visual circuit identification systems—blue for voice, yellow for data, red for security, etc. The integrated label space accepts Brother/DYMO adhesive tags or handwritten labels behind clear overlays, supporting TIA-606-B administration standards. Mount to steel 4-square boxes with single-gang mud rings, plastic low-voltage brackets, or surface-mount boxes depending on wall construction. Flush design sits 0.3 inches proud of the wall surface, minimizing snag hazards in corridors. For installations requiring tamper resistance, the faceplate accepts security screws (not included) through standard mounting holes.
RoHS compliance ensures the CFP4SY qualifies for federal GSA schedules, LEED project specifications, and healthcare system procurement policies restricting lead, mercury, and heavy metals. The stainless steel composition supports installations in corrosive environments—coastal buildings, chemical plants, food processing facilities—where galvanic corrosion or salt air degrades plated steel. Carton quantity of 10 suits mid-size projects (40 total ports); for campus deployments, order multiple cartons to maintain consistent lot specifications. Panduit's Pan-Net sub-brand indicates compatibility with the company's 30+ year modular jack platform, ensuring long-term module availability as technology standards evolve from Cat6A to Cat8 and beyond.
