1. Definition and working principle of network patch panel


The network patch panel is a network component that connects input and output LAN lines or other communications, electronic and electrical systems. Since a network patch panel can provide simple, clean and manageable solutions, it is a good choice for engineers who want to build a wired network with multiple ports in each room.


During network deployment, the main function of the network patch panel is to connect multiple network ports together and connect incoming and outcoming cables. With the use of a network patch panel, engineers only need to plug and unplug the corresponding network cables to arrange the lines, which can greatly improve work efficiency.


2. The importance of network patch panel


(1) As we all know, the network patch panel is usually connected to the rack, which is above or below the network switch for quick cable connection.


(2) The network patch panel has different sizes and configurations, which can be customized according to different network requirements.


(3) The network patch panel collects data from the main connections and routes it to the destination. Therefore, the patch panel is very important to the wiring system. If there is any problem, the entire system will also fail.


(4) The network patch panel can provide network engineers with more convenient and flexible routing options.


(5) The network patch panel is easy to plug and unplug. There are codes on the ports, which can help staff easily and effectively route, mark and manage cables.


3. The benefits of using the network patch panel


(1) The main advantage of using the network patch panel is to improve the organization and management of the wired network.


(2) It can simplify troubleshooting problems because it can provide a location for all input jacks.


(3) Since the network patch panel can provide good connections between devices, it can be used in industries that require a lot of audio equipment.


(4) It can concentrate cables in one location, which makes it easy for network administrators to move, add or change complex network architectures.


4. The installation steps of the network patch panel


A network patch panel can be used if you can connect to an Ethernet jack. It is relatively easy to install a network patch panel, but it still requires professional skills. To make the installation easy and effective, you need to understand the specific installation process and steps.


(1) Steps to install the network patch panel. Check the integrity of the distribution frame and accessories → Install the patch panel on the column in the design position of the cabinet → Manage cables → Terminate cables → Make a mark and install the label strip.


(2) Notes for installing the network patch panel. The network patch panel should be installed in the lower part of the middle of the cabinet. The crystal head of the network patch panel should be toward the outside. During the installation process, please pay attention to horizontal installation and fix the network patch panel.
