Signamax Inc. 24458MDX-C6 Cat6 Patch Panel 24-port

Product Description

The SIGNAMAX INC. 24458MDX-C6 is a 24-port Category 6 patch panel designed for structured cabling installations in network distribution frames and telecommunications rooms. It provides a centralized termination point for horizontal Cat6 cable runs, enabling organized cable management and simplified moves, adds, and changes in data network infrastructure. The panel is sold as a single unit and suits both commercial and light industrial network environments. Licensed low-voltage installers and network cabling technicians are the primary trades that specify and install this panel.

This patch panel is used in structured cabling systems where Category 6 performance is required. Typical installations include server rooms, IDF and MDF closets, and commercial office data distribution points. It terminates horizontal runs coming from workstation outlets and connects to network switches via patch cords, forming the backbone of an organized horizontal cabling system.

Key Features

• 24 ports provide high-density termination in a compact panel form factor
• Category 6 rating supports Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit applications at appropriate channel lengths
• Designed for rack or enclosure mounting in standard telecommunications frames
• Single-unit packaging simplifies procurement for individual panel replacements or phased buildouts

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install panel for Cat6 and Cat6A patch panel applications in standard 19-inch equipment racks and network enclosures.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed low-voltage cabling technicians following TIA-568 and BICSI structured cabling standards. Power down or disconnect any active equipment in the rack before mounting the panel to avoid accidental contact with live switch ports. Terminate horizontal cable runs using a punch-down tool appropriate for the panel's IDC contacts. Follow the panel's port labeling scheme before termination to simplify future administration and troubleshooting.
