XLR 2 x 8 Port Loaded Rack Patch Panel, 1U Rack Height

The panels have 16 x 24mm holes to accept feedthrough and other XLR-format connectors with options of threaded M3x0.50 or #4-40 UNC mounting bushes. A connector labelling strip is located on the front and a cable strain-relief bar is fitted at the rear. Applications include broadcast and AV patch panels, MIL, medical, control and instrumentation signal input/output panels etc. The 1U assemblies can be factory loaded with the specific connectors required by the system designer including BNC, single or dual USB or RJ45 with internal cable harnesses available as a special order. These pre-assembled panels simplify system assembly, reduce manufacturing time, component count and cost. The feedthrough connector range allows designers to integrate audio, video, digital, optical, networking and data feeds into professional equipment for broadcast, lighting, audio, and industrial applications. Versions of note include RJ45, HDMI, BNC and USB3.0 (single and dual). The existing range provides analogue, digital and optical feedthrough connectivity in formats including Firewire, HDMI A-to-A and 50 ohm BNC versions, USB2 A-to-B and B-to-A changer sockets and USB3 to USB3 in various configurations. Also available are popular data and ethernet connectors including LC and SC fibre, (Duplex and Simplex), UTP and FTP RJ45s (shielded and unshielded), TOSLINK and RCA phono. Functionality is affected by cable quality, length and cable wiring configuration.
