Introduction: Neat Patch Ethernet Cable Management Unit
Neat-Patch NP2 Cable Manager provides much needed storage for high
density switches. Simply mount the NP2 and start patching! Easily store the single coil circuits inside the rack.
Product Details:
Neat Patch Cable Management Unit system works by positioning it between two patch panels, one patch panel above the Neat Patch and another below. Normally when patching two panels together with patch cords the cables simply hang causing a weight stress to the panel, the RJ45 mod plug, and even the patch cord itself. Over time this kind of stress can cause any of these parts to fail causing problems with your network resulting in having to spend time and money troubleshooting and replacing the failed equipment. The Neat Patch system, being positioned in between the panels, routes the excess cable into a 6 inch deep ventilated storage relieving all equipment of the weight of the patch panels as well as organizing the cables which makes changes to the cables easy and organized.
