IndustrialNet 8-port DIN Rail Mount Patching Solutions conserve precious real estate by consolidating all patching onto the DIN rails of a zone enclosure or control panel, and are designed to “port map” to Industrial Ethernet modular mini-switches. These products can be deployed as flexible, reconfigurable and high performance structured cabling elements in traditional hierarchical star, fiber to the enclosure (zone) or device level ringIndustrial Ethernet architectures. These structured cabling solutions are important as Ethernet reaches further into the industrial automation network, enabling traditional IT departments to manage change in the industrial network through the use of familiar patching facilities and structured cabling models. The use of Panduit IndustrialNet Modular Patching allows customers to easily deploy copper connectivity in the same modular DIN footprint in such applications.
