Intellinet 513579 Cat5e 48-Port UTP Patch Panel
The Intellinet 513579 is a rackmount termination panel for Cat5e unshielded twisted-pair copper cabling. It provides 48 RJ45 ports in a black, 2U panel designed for standard 19-inch racks.
Use it to bring installed network cables to a central patching location, making connection changes and maintenance easier. It supports Ethernet, Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet cabling applications in offices, network closets and other structured cabling installations.
Key Features
- 48 RJ45 ports for organizing copper network connections.
- Cat5e UTP design.
- Standard 19-inch rackmount format occupying 2U.
- Rear punch-down termination compatible with 110 and Krone tools.
- Accepts 22–26 AWG solid and stranded wire.
- Gold-plated jack contacts.
Structured Cabling and Connectivity
The front RJ45 ports provide accessible patching points, while the rear IDC terminals connect the installed cable runs. Patch cords link the panel to switches or other network equipment.
Installation
Terminate conductors with a compatible 110 or Krone punch-down tool, following the panel's wiring labels. Use a consistent T568A or T568B wiring scheme throughout each link and verify the completed installation with suitable cable-testing equipment.
Ideal Applications
- Office LAN cable termination.
- Rack-based network distribution points.
- Network closet organization.
- Moves, additions and changes to existing copper cabling.
Compatible Products
The rear terminals accept Cat5e UTP cable with 22–26 AWG solid or stranded conductors. Front patching uses RJ45 Ethernet patch cords. Installation requires a suitable 19-inch rack with 2U available and adequate rear cable clearance.
- Intellinet 347365 Cat5e UTP RJ45 Patch Cable, 0.5 ft., Blue – compatible with the panel's front RJ45 ports for short patch connections where its length is sufficient.
- 110 and Krone punch-down tools for rear IDC termination.
Important: This is an unshielded Cat5e panel. It does not provide shield continuity or upgrade a cabling channel to Cat6 or Cat6A. Rear connections require punch-down termination; this is not an RJ45 female-to-female feed-through panel.
