Whether you’re upgrading a room full of switches or expanding a growing data center, this patch panel helps you maximize space, improve airflow, and reduce installation time.

• 48-port modular design for scalable connectivity — Perfect for high-density deployments, this patch panel consolidates a large number of connections into a single, organized footprint. Its modular approach enables you to mix and match adapters and faceplates to meet current needs while preserving room for future expansion. The 48-port configuration minimizes rack space while maximizing port density, helping you optimize airflow and reduce cable clutter in crowded data centers and network closets.
• Standard 19-inch rack compatibility for easy integration — Built to fit common data-center infrastructure, this patch panel aligns with industry-standard rack hardware, simplifying installation alongside switches, servers, and other network gear. Its durable mounting framework is designed for secure attachment and straightforward access, making maintenance tasks that require port reconfiguration quick and error-free.
• Durable, cable-management-friendly construction — The patch panel is designed to withstand routine terminations and reconfigurations. A rigid frame supports stable port alignment, while integrated cable-management features help control bend radii and route cables cleanly to downstream equipment. With thoughtful labeling and clear port mapping, technicians can identify and manage connections rapidly, reducing downtime during moves, adds, and changes.
• Labeling-ready and accessory-friendly — The Nk FP 48PT2 is built to work with Panduit’s labeling kits and modular accessories, enabling precise, durable port identification and streamlined administration. A well-labeled panel simplifies troubleshooting and minimizes cross-connection errors. The modular nature also allows easier upgrades to newer modules without replacing the entire panel, protecting your initial investment.
• Ideal for data centers, server rooms, and network closets — This 48-port modular panel is suited for environments where reliable performance and easy maintenance matter most. It supports efficient cable management practices, supports standard patch cords, and aligns with Panduit’s ecosystem of accessories for labeling, management, and organization, delivering a cohesive solution for growing networks.

How to install Panduit Modular Patch Panel

• 1. Prepare the rack space: verify the mounting rails are level and clean, and gather all required mounting hardware compatible with your frame and panel.
• 2. Align the patch panel with the rack’s vertical posts and slide it into the 19-inch opening, ensuring the ports face forward for easy access.
• 3. Secure the patch panel to the rack using the appropriate screws or mounting brackets, tightening evenly to avoid misalignment and to maintain panel stability.
• 4. Install modular adapters, faceplates, or keystone modules as needed, following Panduit’s recommended modules for port configuration and labeling compatibility.
• 5. Route and terminate cables behind the panel: plan for consistent bend radii, use rear cable management, and label each port to ensure accurate cross-connects and future scalability. Finally, perform a quick continuity check to confirm each port is properly terminated and accessible from the front.
