5.11. Patch panels

Patch panels are used to ease the telecom wiring.

For VoIP, TETRA installation the standard Ethernet patch panels are applicable.

Also, for connection to the DTP (ISDN-E1 / ISDN T1) the standard Ethernet patch panels are applicable,

but you need a RJ45 "T" splitter for every trunk to tap.

For connection to the ATP and the DST cards (AUDIO/POTS/TDM/ISDN2) we offer 2 different patch

panels,

• The RJ11 patch panel;

• The Tapping Patch box.

These patch panels use RJ-type connectors. Find everything in detail for RJ cables in Wikipedia.

The RJ11 patch panel is included for every purchased ATP or DST interface card and it is suitable for

the smaller installations, up to 8 – 24 channels. This type of patch panel may need special made cabling

and external RJ12 "T"- splitters

The Tapping Patch box is optionally available and works with standard Ethernet cables and has a build-

in "T" splitter. This is the smoothest way to install obviously.

Patch panels have powerless operation.
