That's the port where a cable will attach to carry data from the fiber optic network to your device. Fiber optic patch panels are enclosures that act as a distribution hub for fiber cable. A bulk (multi-strand) fiber cable enters the patch panel and then each fiber strand is separated into individual strands or pairs of strands. Patch panels are rack-mountable onto 19", 21"and 23" rack systems, and some are designed to be wall-mountable.

The 24 port patch panels predominantly occupy a space of 1U in the network racks. The Excel range of LC patch panels are sliding drawer "tray style" housings suitable for either direct termination or splicing of up to 24 fibre using SC simplex or 48 when using LC duplex connections in a 1U space. Maximize the performance of your network with reliable, high-quality fiber patch and adapter panels, fiber enclosures, and fiber cassettes.
