Siemon has announced a new MAX In-Line Coupler panel with RJ45 connections on both the
front and rear of the panel for faster deployments and quick duplication of
active equipment ports in a variety of applications.

Preassembled with 24 Category 5e or 6 UTP couplers, the MAX In-Line Coupler Panel allows for
connecting RJ45 plugs into both sides of the panel. When used with Siemon’s
doubled-ended IC solid and MC stranded modular cords, the coupler panel allows
for extremely quick duplication of active equipment ports, which is ideal for
emergency situations. The performance of the MAX In-Line Couplers is such that
one coupler can be installed per warranted channel along with up to another
three non-coupler connectors.

“In highly dynamic environments with constant change or in situations that call for
getting active equipment up and running extremely quickly, the ability to plug
RJ45 cords into the back of a patch panel eliminates time-consuming punch down
of cable,” says Siemon product manager Brian McCaffrey. “Popular for
temporary installations and disaster recovery, our MAX In-Line Coupler Panel can
be deployed without exceeding channel requirements.”

Constructed of lightweight high strength steel with a black finish, the panel features a
compact single rack unit design and a removable rear cable management bar that
secures cables for proper strain relief.
