Patch Panel Modules

New Telegärtner modular patch panel from Webb: the ultimate solution for under-pressure telecoms facilities

Johannesburg, 22 January 2019

The exponential growth in data and telecoms services has created significant space pressure in data centres and telecommunication rooms of telecom companies. Space is expensive and ever-increasing costs call for optimum usage with high-density solutions.

The crucial factor is that improved efficiencies must be effected without reducing quality –connections must still be robust, reliable, easy to handle and, as there is constant change in IT technologies, the cabling has to be highly flexible to cater for these changes.

These challenges are more than met with Telegärtner’s new patch panel system HD³ (high density, high durability, high dynamic) from Jasco’s Webb Industries.

With fibre optic, twisted pair and coax modules for the cabling installation on-site, as well as for the connection of pre-terminated cables that can be combined individually and which can be installed and changed within just a few seconds, the new HD3 patch panel is the ideal solution for users who need a high density, high quality, easy to use, efficient, flexible and future-proof solution.

The HD³ patch panel has a wide range of features and benefits including:

• ½ HU, 1 HU and 3 HU modular 19“ panels, which can be installed in recessed position
• Multi-purpose rail for easy cable routing, strain relief and installation of mounting brackets
• Installation of modules possible from the front and from behind due to innovative locking mechanism
• Modules in standard non-recessed position can be exchanged quickly without the need for special tools
• Mixing of fibre optic, twisted pair and coaxial modules in the same panel for maximum efficiency
• Huge variety of different fibre optic modules for breakout/mini-breakout/pre-terminated cables, with integrated splice cassette or fanout modules with MPO/MTP® connection;
• Up to 144 fibres with LC connectors per HU with MPO/MTP® modules
• Up to 144 fibres with LC connectors per HU with breakout and mini-breakout cables
• Up to 96 fibres with loose tube cables
• Up to 48 RJ45 jacks per HU
• Up to 48 SMA or 24 BNC coax connections per HU
• Cable management can be installed and removed without any tools
• Customer-specific modules available on request

Summary of Patch Panel Modules

HD³ FO Modules with Adaptors
For breakout and mini-breakout cables as well as for pre-terminated cables (TICNET). Slots in 1 HU panels also accept two modules of half-height stacked upon each other.

HD³ FO Modules with Splice Cassettes
For loose tube cables. Integrated splice cassette with splice holder for crimp and micro heat-shrink splice protectors; modules come pre-loaded with pigtails. Slots in 1 HU panels also accept two modules of half-height stacked upon each other.

HD³ FO FanOut Modules
With MPO/MTP® adaptors at the back.
Modules come with installed Fan Out kit MPO/MTP®-LC.
Slots in 1 HU panels also accept two modules of half-height stacked upon each other.

HD³ Modules for RJ45 Jacks and Coupler
Accept STX or AMJ-S/AMJ Cat. 8.1 RJ45 jacks for twisted pair cables. STX RJ45 jacks and couplers can be mixed in the same HD³ module as can AMJ-S and AMJ Cat. 8.1 in the appropriate modules. Slots in 1 HU panels also accept two modules of half-height stacked upon each other.

HD³ Modules for Coaxial Cables
Modules come with coaxial adaptors already mounted.
Slots in 1 HU panels also accept two modules of half-height stacked upon each other.

HD³ Modular Patch Panels
Accept HD³ modules of half or full height.
The modules can be installed from the front and from the back; different kinds of modules can be mixed in the same panel. Slots in 1 HU panels also accept two modules of half-height stacked upon each other.
