    I like the color match. I agree that there should be a spot for a label and a tension bar. Also, having a shielded option would be nice.

    Thanks, good video. Keystone blanks - I would install them only IF airflow requires it (cold / hot aisle)

    I've been after some of these for a while as I'm from the UK they were always sold out so I order 2 from USA they were as what you got, I needed another 2 as I was looking UK store was down and it sent me to EU store which they never hardly have stock in and to my surprise they had none in, the next day I looked again and they had them in stock 'Sep 4, 2023' so I quicky grabbed the 2 I needed when they arrived 'guess what' they now come with tension bars - just to let you know :-)

  • @darrenoleary5952
    @darrenoleary5952 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    On the topic of the tension bar, I can see the need for one if you wereusing punch down keystones to ensure that any tension on the cables doesn't pull out any of the pairs, but if you're using pass-thru keystones, is there really a need for it?

  • @mikeydk

    I have been considering these multiple times, but I miss the ability to properly label each port. Right now I use some patch panels from RS and they got a clear plastic piece to remove, and you can then write on the label behind that plastic piece. Instead of using the paper which came with it, I have made a google sheet with the proper cell width, so I can print the dividing lines and all and just cut it out. Looks so good, all text is straight, centered properly over the port, and I can even change text color and background for each section.

  • @MajorTendonitis

    I was not aware of these at all . Sigh , of course I’m in Canada . I think this is a great idea and looks very clean. I’m wondering if this panel will be ok with Leviton Extreme 6 keystones , as you sure here a lot about some manufacturers being too wide

  • @robtaylor206
    @robtaylor206 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I like that it's not labeled. Easier to use on 48port switches and number my preferred way.

    Hello Cody, I really enjoy your videos they are always really helpful. Please i have a request, can you make a video on Unifi Spanning Tree Protocol for Link Redundancy like how Cisco have it but for Unifi switches only. For example if you have two Unifi aggregation switches for distribution as Link Redundancy that if an uplink to a switch goes down the other link takes over as how Spanning Tree works.
    Many Thanks in advance

  • @aliazimi91
    @aliazimi91 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    If you plan on using shielded keystones with this panel, how would you ground the panel? Most shielded panels come with a grounding cable so not sure how it would work here

    • @tverspeelt
      @tverspeelt ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The panel looks to be anodised aluminium. If a keystone is just touching it, there will be no ground path. You need to grind/sind/file away the anodised layer to get to the bare aluminium. So basically, you can't use this panel for any sort of grounding/shielding.

    • @Richardsumilang

      I looked up this video because uniti support told me it would be bonded to the rack upon mounting but I feel that's not the case... Would like to know if anyone has tried.

  • @kellycote2675
    @kellycote2675 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    1 issue I found was that my keystones take up too much space so you need a slimmer keystone if you want to fit all 24 in nicely. I got them all in but I can see them possibly popping out.

    • @FriendlySkies1K
      @FriendlySkies1K ปีที่แล้ว

      Same here. It was way too tight with the keystones I got from Monoprice.

    • @morejelloplease
      @morejelloplease ปีที่แล้ว

      VCE are said to fit, but they don't make a fast tool, VC makes slim ones with a tool but they are over 2x the price for the keystones alone.

  • @MrMorajo
    @MrMorajo ปีที่แล้ว

    Shouldn't the patch panel be grounded? (Dunno if it is called grounded in english) to shield it?

  • @anthonyallen83
    @anthonyallen83 ปีที่แล้ว

    I bought a couple of these when they were in EA, I couldn't get my keystones to clip in and so I returned them to Unifi. I also prefer the patch panels that have tensioners so I wasn't too upset.

    What would be a good shielded keystone to with with this patch panel? Blue or grey would be preferred.

    • @MactelecomNetworks
      @MactelecomNetworks  ปีที่แล้ว

      Most shielded keystones are silver which would match the patch panel. I use vertical cable keystones

    1) The missing strain relief is a real drawback
    2) The general availability of Ubiquiti products another one.
