Cable Matters Rackmount or Wall Mount 2U 48 Port Keystone Patch Panel with Cable Management and Support Bar (19-inch Blank Patch Panel for Keystone Jacks/Keystone Panel)

Update: July 24,2020. Ill admit I made a mistake and didnt read the listing for the keystones fully to realize that I should have got these narrow keystones instead: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06Y8T7NSH So I guess the moral of the story is look at what youre ordering closer than I did. If you use the regular keystones CM sells youll have the problem that I had in the pictures above; they are just a bit too wide and cumulatively you end up losing a spot on the panel.

Nice product takes Keystone jacks devotion, amp good product.

I love having 24 ports, but the only way I see getting RJ-45 keystones side-by-side is if you have some really good side cutters. The wire ends stick out too much. Thankfully I only needed a couple of keystones and are using other ports for cable management.

Good quality, and fits standard keystone jacks just fine.

Theres some really good things, and really bad things about this. First, while some posts demand that you MUST use Cable Matters keystones -- you dont. This will (somewhat) work with any standard sized keystone jacks. Since I buy keystones in bulk from another company, I went ahead and tried this rack. Heres the good ........ its AMAZING to get 24 ports in 1U .. Generally, youll need 2U for this many ports. If youre using couplers, or small pass-through keystones (think audio, HDMI, etc.), then this would be fantastic. Heres the bad ........ if youre using non-Cable Matters crimped wired keystone CAT5(E)/6(A)/7 jacks -- youll never, ever, ever get 24 of them in this thing. Thankfully the project Im currently working on utilizes mostly couplers, though I had to readapt my layout for some wired keystones - otherwise this could have been a nightmare. Would I recommend it? Sure -- as long as youre not wiring up a 24 port network with crimp down keystones.

I highly recommend this patch panel. I used two of them for for RJ45s (TRENDnet TC-K25C6). The jacks click in solidly, and the strain relief on the back works the best out of any Ive used. It is in line with the jack, and of pretty solid constructions. The panel even has little slits on the front that line up with the spring tabs on keystones, so you can pop them out without trying to get back behind and push down the tab. I did not observe any sharp edges to bite me while assembling either. Ill definitely be using this model again when I need to do my next panel.

Do not used with cat6 connector or cat6 POE port one it will short out against the matter. Also connector are to close together and will short out against each other.

It gets the job done. However, the key stones fit a little loose. I’m a newbie when it comes to networking, so this could be true with all patch panels. Good value for the money.

Perfect edition to my rack. Really allows for a clean installation and I like using keystone so I can use CAT5e, CAT6 or CAT6A keystones.

Good Product at a good prince
