The Excel Category 5e Patch Panel is a professional-grade 2U solution engineered to exceed "Enhanced Category 5" standards. Designed for high-demand networking environments, this panel supports Gigabit Ethernet with significant performance headroom, ensuring reliable data transmission for critical enterprise applications.
Exceeds Industry Standards: Rigorously tested to TIA and ISO Category 5e specifications.
Advanced Frequency Analysis: Every panel undergoes swept frequency testing for critical characteristics, including Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) and Far-End Crosstalk (FEXT).
Power Sum Certified: Verified using both Worst Case and Power Sum test methods to ensure maximum signal integrity and reduced interference.
LSA Style Termination: Features industry-standard LSA IDC blocks for fast, reliable punchdown termination.
Dual Wiring: Supports both T568A and T568B wiring configurations for global compatibility.
Advanced Labeling System: Offers three distinct labeling methods to suit any workflow:
Screen-printed fields on the panel fascia.
An integrated slide label system.
Included pre-printed 1-96 self-adhesive labels.
High-Capacity 2U Form Factor: Provides 48 ports in a standard 19-inch 2U footprint, perfect for high-density rack setups.
Enhanced Cable Management: Designed with ample rear positions to ensure neat cable dressing and strain relief.
Complete Kit: Ships with cage nuts and mini cable ties included, making it ready for immediate deployment.

Performance Overview
Excel Category 5e Patch Panels are manufactured to and tested to the current Category 5 enhanced standards as defined by the TIA and ISO standards’ bodies. Swept frequency tests are applied to each critical performance characteristic, such as near end cross talk (NEXT) and far end cross talk (FEXT). Both Worst Case and Power Sum Test methods are applied. Actual performance exceeds the required standard by a considerable margin ensuring sufficient headroom for even the most demanding applications.
