Description

HCS DataLink 250E unshielded copper RJ-45 patch panel series includes high performance Enhanced Category 6 panels specially designed for structured premise cabling in local area networks (LANs). HCS DataLink 250E straight patch panels are ideal for data-centers and installations of high density or which utilize extensive side and end-of-the-rack cable management. The IDC section consists of V-shaped contacts that flex (not fatigue) when terminated. Each RJ45 port features a patented spring-loaded shutter and can be color coded to match jack outlets with the use of optional port icons. Offering both front and rear labeling options, the patch panel is constructed of cold-rolled steel for additional strength and durability. All panels fully conform to and provide a substantial margin above all ANSI/TIA-568.2-D and ISO/IEC-11801 (2nd Edition) Category 6 component requirements, tested at the component level. The HCS Logo and the DataLink 250E Trademark ensure long lasting high-performance and full support of all present and emerging applications.

Application
HCS DataLink 250E unshielded copper RJ-45 straight patch panels are mainly used for horizontal distribution or equipment terminations in data-centers, dense telecommunications rooms and for interconnection terminations in consolidation points, and they fully support all presently available LAN applications, including the following protocols:
☑ 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet ☑ ATM 155 ☑ TP-PMD ☑ 100BASE-T "Fast Ethernet" ☑ 100BASE-T2 ☑ 100BASE-T4 ☑ 100BASE-TX ☑ Token Ring 100 Mbps	☑ ATM 52 ☑ ATM 25 ☑ 10BASE-T Ethernet ☑ Token Ring 4 Mbps and 16 Mbps ☑ Broadband and Baseband Video ☑ ISDN Basic and Primary Access ☑ 1BASE-5 Starlan ☑ ISALAN	☑ ITU V.21 and X.11 ☑ Token Ring 4 Mbps and 16 Mbps ☑ Broadband & Baseband Video ☑ ISDN ☑ 1BASE-5 Starlan ☑ ISALAN ☑ ITU V.21 and X.11
