Panduit QuickNet QSP24BL 24-Port Modular Patch Panel

The Panduit QuickNet QSP24BL is a rugged, 24-port modular patch panel designed for high-density network deployments. Built with all-metal construction and finished in a professional black tone, this 1U patch panel delivers the durability and reliability needed in data centers, server rooms, and network closets. It is engineered to accept QuickNet pre-terminated shielded cassettes and patch panel adapters, enabling fast, clean terminations and streamlined cable management. With a compact 1U footprint, the QSP24BL helps you maximize rack space while keeping your cabling organized, labeled, and easy to scale as your network evolves. Whether you are upgrading an existing infrastructure or building out a new site, this patch panel provides a solid foundation for protected, high-performance network connectivity.

• High-density 24-port design in 1U: The QSP24BL compresses 24 ports into a single 1U rack space, delivering dense connectivity without sacrificing performance or ease of access for maintenance and upgrades.
• All-metal durability for lasting reliability: Constructed from rugged metal, this patch panel resists impact and wear in busy environments while providing robust electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding to maintain signal integrity across the cabling system.
• Supports QuickNet shielded cassettes and adapters: Designed to work seamlessly with QuickNet pre-terminated shielded cassettes and patch panel adapters, enabling fast terminations, reduced field termination time, and cleaner cable management.
• Flat panel design for airflow and organization: The flat, low-profile front minimizes airflow disruption and allows clear labeling and tidy cable routing, contributing to better cooling and easier identification of ports.
• Easy rack integration with standard 19-inch compatibility: Engineered for universal 19-inch racks and compatible with Panduit accessories, ensuring a cohesive, scalable infrastructure that’s simple to expand as needs grow.

How to install Panduit QuickNet QSP24BL Modular Patch Panel

Install the QSP24BL in a standard 19-inch rack to begin building a scalable, shielded network backbone. Plan your layout to accommodate future growth and create a clean separation between active and spare ports. Use proper hardware and mounting screws suitable for your rack system and ensure secure, level positioning to prevent torque on the connectors. Align the patch panel with adjacent 1U modules to maintain a consistent front-plate profile. If you are integrating QuickNet shielded cassettes or adapters, prepare your pre-terminated assemblies and verify that port assignments align with your labeling scheme. Route cables with attention to bend radii and airflow, using cable ties or management bars to keep rows tidy and accessible. Finally, test each port with a reliable cable tester or toner tool to confirm continuity, shielding integrity, and correct mapping before placing the panel into full service. Regularly inspect cable pathways and labeling to ensure long-term reliability and ease of maintenance.

• Step 1: Confirm rack space and alignment—prepare a clean, level mounting area for the 1U panel.
• Step 2: Mount the patch panel in the rack using standard 19-inch mounting screws and brackets, ensuring a secure, level fit.
• Step 3: If using QuickNet shielded cassettes or adapters, install them per Panduit guidance, orienting them for easy access and labeling.
• Step 4: Terminate and route cables neatly—maintain proper bend radii, label ports, and secure runs with appropriate cable management hardware.
• Step 5: Test all ports with a qualified tester, verify shielding and continuity, then finalize labeling and documentation for future reference.
