kwmobile 8 Port Patch Panel - RJ45 Cat6 Shielded Network Splitter Panel with Ground Wire - Includes Screws and Dowels for Wall Mount Installation

Instead of getting cables pulled from one side, all cables come directly into back of patch panel making punching down so much easier. There is also a metal bracket that screws down and clamps and secures two cables at a time as well as the ability to cable tie each one individually. These items make the patch panel look extremely tidy and very solid with little to almost no chance of cables being pulled out of the back.Once all cables patched in, there is an extra metal cover that goes over all the patched cables. This acts as a protector and adds to the aesthetics.I won't go back to using the old style patch panels.

For what it is, this is a great piece of kit. Made of metal it is solid and slim. Perfect for my needs.

The main thing is the punch down sockets all worked. Would prefer that the cover doesn't screw down from the sides because I have a cramped install within a wardrobe and need to mount the LAN switch to the side so if I ever need to revisit the patch I'll have to remove it first.

I have both the 12 and 8 port version of this patch panel. The keystones work as expected and it's a solid bit of kit. Recommended!

Great shielded Cat6 patch panel for a decent. Decent quality IDC punchdown terminals. Comes with a very basic set of instructions, 4 M6 rack screws and a small bag of cable ties although there's aren't enough supplied to tie down all the ports so loses one star for that. Otherwise, highly recommended.

Great little patch panel that I use for CCTV installations in various places. Works a treat and has no issues with PoE devices passing through.The mounting mechanism does require you to first take the entire thing apart, so you can mount the shell and tighen it down on a wall for example, before then being able to get it cabled up.Could do with the earth cable being a bit longer, or having the hardware to create our own cable and just have the unit omit the earth cable - leaving the crimped end / screw in the box for use later on etc.Definitely recommend to use and purchase

Good

Very useful for terminating a series of remote CAT6 cables in a cupboard to provide a remote location for a server and other bits and bobs.Easy to mount on a wall, although I was only able to firmly screw down one of the screws due to the design of the mounting slots.Punch down on the cables is very easy, cable clamps are stable and sturdy. Do use a cable tie though for additional protection.Great product at a good price. Buying a second for another location (behind TV where I have 4 CAT6 cables terminating) so cant say better than that.
