Ortronics PHA5E6U48-W 48-port Angled Patch Panel Cat5e

Product Description

The ORTRONICS PHA5E6U48-W is a 48-port angled patch panel designed for structured cabling installations in network distribution frames and telecommunications rooms. Built to Cat5e performance standards with 110-style punch-down terminations, this panel provides a high-density, organized connection point between horizontal cable runs and active network equipment. The white finish suits standard rack environments. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors install this panel as a central termination and patching point in data rooms, server closets, and communication wiring hubs.

This panel is suited for commercial and residential structured cabling deployments where Cat5e performance is required. The angled port orientation reduces cable management strain on patch cords, making it a practical choice in high-density rack installations where cable routing space is limited. It accommodates 48 individual terminations in a single panel, consolidating a full cable run into one organized patch point.

Key Features

• 48 ports in a single panel for high-density termination
• Angled port design reduces patch cord stress and improves cable management
• Cat5e rated for reliable data transmission up to Category 5e performance standards
• 110-style punch-down termination compatible with standard 110 punch-down tools
• White finish for clean integration into standard rack and enclosure environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard installation component for Cat5e structured cabling systems using 110-style punch-down termination in rack-mounted patch panel applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by low-voltage cabling technicians or network infrastructure contractors. De-energize or disconnect active network equipment before terminating cables to avoid signal disruption. A 110-style punch-down tool is required for proper termination. Follow TIA-568 cabling standards for pair arrangement and termination practices to maintain Cat5e channel performance.
