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)

I could not install a keystone jack in every 3rd hole. It just would not fit. But I do like the organized look of using jumpers to my switch.

Replaced my old punch-down patch panel with this excellent keystone patch panel, and married it to the white keystone jacks from Cable Matters (UL Listed RJ45 Keystone Jack Coupler Gender Changer in White ). The patch cables connect and disconnect from the patch panel effortlessly. There is enough room to work without skinning any knuckles. Should have done this a long time ago. Excellent quality and construction.

What I was looking for

for a new project never did a rack before, this made it look professional and clean.

Everything from CableMatters that I have dealt with has been top notch, and this patch panel is no different. I prefer keystone patch panels such as this over regular punch down patch panels due to their versatility, but to each their own. Very well made and sturdy and comes with small zip ties to secure it to the panel for strain relief. Either keystone/punch down patch panel is a must have for a clean professional install.

Great Price, Little flimsier than I had expected from this company. one of the plastic retainers popped out on the first try to install coax keystone.

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.

Great cable patch panels

Good quality, very sturdy. Only downside (for me) was that I could only use every other keystone slot, even when using Cable Matters keystone jacks. With this kind of keystone jack, the cables pass through the keystone and exit on the sides, where you clip them off. But even with very close trimming, the ends touch the ones on the next keystone, giving you shorts and crosstalk, because the fit is really tight. That also prevents you from applying electrical tape to isolate the jacks. Using every other slot gives you enough clearance to prevent this.

Surprised with the quality of the build for the price. Works as expected.
