Tripp Lite N252-024 24 Port Cat6 Patch Panel

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE N252-024 is a 24-port Cat6 patch panel designed for structured cabling installations in network distribution frames and server room environments. It provides a centralized termination point for horizontal cable runs, organizing patch connections between switching equipment and end-user drops. The panel supports Cat6 performance standards, making it suitable for Gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed data applications. Licensed low-voltage technicians and network infrastructure installers handle typical deployments in both commercial and residential structured wiring projects.

This patch panel is built for use in standard 19-inch equipment racks and wall-mount enclosures commonly found in telecommunications rooms, server closets, and network distribution hubs. It accommodates 24 individual port terminations, allowing a single rack unit to consolidate an entire cable bundle from a floor or zone. The panel suits installations following TIA-568 structured cabling guidelines for office buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, and light industrial environments.

Key Features

• 24 Cat6-rated ports for Gigabit Ethernet and high-speed data termination
• Rack-mount form factor compatible with standard 19-inch enclosures
• Centralized termination point simplifies cable management and troubleshooting
• Sold individually as a single unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit option for Cat6 structured cabling systems using 19-inch rack or wall-mount enclosures in commercial and residential network installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed low-voltage or data cabling technician. De-energize all connected switching and patch equipment before terminating or re-patching cables. Follow TIA-568 wiring standards for pair termination sequence and observe minimum bend radius requirements for Cat6 cable. Avoid over-dressing patch cables in a way that introduces sharp bends at the port entry points.
