The models sport unique form factors, designed to provide space-savings and cable management opportunities for SMBs.
Power protection and connectivity hardware manufacturer Tripp Lite introduced two new Cat6 patch panels this week. The unique form factors of the panels have piqued some interest in the channel.
The models provide space-savings and cable management opportunities — two attributes especially sought after by SMBs. Both of the new patch panels are TAA-compliant, meeting the requirements for GSA schedule purchases.
“Tripp Lite’s new patch panels feature designs that allow IT managers to integrate sturdy cable management into racks without compromising valuable space,” says David Posner, Tripp Lite’s product manager. “Their durable construction (including built-in strain relief) make them long-lasting and simple solutions for network cabling organization.”
The Tripp Lite N252-024-V, 24-port Cat6 Patch Panel is an angled, Keystone-style patch panel. The angled design enables smooth routing of patch cables to vertical cable troughs, without the need for additional front cable management, saving valuable rack space.
