Match category, shielding and connector format
Patch panels should be specified by category, port count, shielded or unshielded construction and loaded or unloaded format. Identify the compatible jack system when requesting an unloaded panel, and include rack space and cable management requirements.
For patch cords, state the category, shielding, length, colour, jacket and installation environment. The supplied Elsewedy brochure lists lengths from 0.5 m to 20 m across the patch-cord range, with exact model and length availability subject to confirmation.
Keystone enquiries should include category, shielding, termination requirements and faceplate format. The brochure lists US and UK faceplate styles with shutter options across the range. Confirm how the jack, plate and panel fit together rather than treating all RJ45 parts as interchangeable.
