Patch panel ShiverPeaks S/CONN 75060

The ShiverPeaks S/CONN 75060 patch panel is a compact, metal-bodied network component designed to organize RJ-45 terminations for Cat6 cabling. With a grey finish and a small footprint, it provides a reliable mounting point for structured cabling in home or small office racks and cabinets while keeping cables accessible and tidy.

Advantages

The metal construction offers mechanical durability and improved grounding potential compared with plastic alternatives. Support for Cat6 cabling ensures compatibility with gigabit Ethernet and higher-performance local networks. The panel's compact dimensions make it suitable for installations where space is limited, and its RJ-45 connectors provide standardized, tool-friendly terminations for patch cords and keystone modules.

Suitable for

• Organizing Cat6 RJ-45 terminations in small server racks and wall-mounted cabinets
• Home network infrastructure and small office LANs
• Point-to-point patching between switches, routers, and network devices
• Temporary setups or lab environments where a compact, durable patch panel is needed

Key specifications

• Connector type: RJ-45
• Cable category support: Cat6
• Material: Metal housing
• Colour: Grey
• Dimensions (W × H × D): 160 mm × 45 mm × 108 mm

How to use

Mount the patch panel in a compatible rack or cabinet using appropriate fasteners, or secure it to a flat surface if supported by the installation. Terminate Cat6 cables to the RJ-45 connectors according to standard wiring schemes (T568A or T568B) and verify continuity and pair integrity with a cable tester. Use short patch cords to connect the panel ports to switches, routers, or other active equipment, and label ports as required for easy identification.

Recommendations

Arrange cables to minimize bend radius and avoid sharp kinks; maintain separation from power cables to reduce potential interference. Use a cable tester after installation to confirm signal integrity and correct wiring. For permanent installations, follow local grounding practices and ensure the metal panel is properly bonded if required.
