    A patch panel is a flat piece of hardware with network ports that is typically located in a server room or wiring closet. Its purpose is to reduce clutter by by keeping your network cables neat and organized.

    I've seen so many server and switch rooms with patch panels that still has clutters of cables. They all look good and organized at the start, but after several years of maintenance all those cables will be cluttered and messed-up too.
    Truth be told, being organized does not rely on patch panels. It all depends on the personnel's that maintains it.

    • @MrGoThrough
      @MrGoThrough Před 8 měsíci +1

      Yes agree. And to add, most of the scenarios, the trigger point is when there is a need to add more cables, and this where things start of out hands. So, what we did is we setup everything in full, more cost but easier to maintain in long term.

    It could have been useful to show a real world example of how it helps in troubleshooting. For example, instead of second guessing which wall outlet the port is connected to, you see the wall outlet written in front of you, so there's no mistaking it, and no need to have another person on the other side to see if the light is blinking, to verify where the cable is going to

      @@MwishaLudack There are cable tracers for that use case. You plug a device that sends a tone throughout the cable. On the other end, you have a device that can pickup that tone. It is pretty useful when the labeling is not done yet or was done poorly or not at all. There are even more advanced testers that can tell you how long the cable is, if there are any breaks in the cable and many other pieces of information.

    If a line works directly to the switch but fails through a panel, check the length of the line. A line that is maxed out in distance may not have enough signal left to be reliable through a panel. The resistence through the panel may be the straw that breaks the camel's back. The panel is not powered and will not amplify the signal. Punch down is slightly less resistent than a rj45 on both ends.

      talking about a mess, I got one story. I have never seen "randomized" numbering... I mean, on the patch panel the numbering looks ok: 1, 2, 3 and so on. However, eth jack #1 can be at the front desk BUT eth #2 is NOT anywhere near jack #1. #2 can be anywhere in the building (at the back of the building for example). Then #3 jack isn't anywhere #2 either. It's somewhere in the building. What a complete mess.

    But in order to know which device the back of the panel is connected to one still needs to be organised at the time of original connection . If this was done to the cables coming from the various rooms/devices and the cables labelled appropriately the same result can be achieved without the patch panel (albeit the panel is a bit tidier to look at from the front) ?

    • @JJFlores197
      @JJFlores197 Před 8 měsíci +1

      That is correct. A patch panel is not absolutely necessary, but it does make it easy when you have a large network to organize the cables. If you have a wing of 5 classrooms that all have 10 data drops, that's 50 ethernet cables going to a network cabinet. It is much easier to simply terminate those 50 cables into a patch panel and then label the data drops in the classroom and the panel accordingly.
