GIRARD Cat.6 UTP EZ-Panels are part of the GIRARD EZ-Cabling System, featuring Category 6 performance. The system is designed to conform to ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B.2-1, ISO/IEC 11801 2nd edition (2002) and CENELEC EN50173 (2002) for Category 6/Class E.
EZ-View Capability
Special Cat.6 UTP 24/48 EZ-Panels models, when used in conjunction with GIRARD's EZ-View System, are able to scan the wiring center configuration and subsequently report the connectivity status.
Patching information is displayed on the management station for cabling management applications.
LED indicators on EZ-Panels identify any two ports patched together. Extremely useful for facilitating maintenance in mid-to-large size wiring centers which are over congested with patch cords. Computerized LED displays guide the technician when performing Moves, Adds and Changes (MACs).
The GIRARD Cat.6 UTP line of data communications EZ-Panels meets the requirements for high-performance Category 6 network components. The EZ-Panels conform to ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B.2-1, ISO/IEC 11801 2nd edition (2002) and CENELEC EN50173 (2002) for Category 6/Class E, and are designed for high-speed applications such as ATM 622 Mbps, Gigabit Ethernet 1000 Mbps and future high-speed applications.
The EZ-Panels are optimized for ease of assembly and termination. With simple labor-saving termination using standard 110 Block termination and Krone tools and color-coded wiring blocks, installation costs are significantly reduced. A unique assembly fixture is available for supporting the EZ-Panel during assembly.
Special Cat.6 UTP models, when used in conjunction with GIRARD's EZ-View system, are able to perform remote or on-site scanning of the patching configuration. The entire wiring center's patching configuration is continuously monitored by a scanner which reports the data to a remote terminal.
The network administrator uses this data as a vital part of his cabling management system. The data may be displayed on the EZ-Panel itself by LED indicators.
Servicing time is dramatically reduced as computerized LED displays guide the technician when performing Moves, Adds & Changes (MAC).
Interface
Front Interconnection (patch cord side)
24/48 nine-position RJ-45 unshielded modular jacks. Use of patch cords with GIRARD Cat.6 RJ-45 plugs is recommended.
Back Interconnection (cabling side)
24/48 eight-position 110 and Krone tool-compatible blocks, accept 22-24 AWG wires and stranded 24-26 AWG. Rated for up to a minimum of 200 retermination
Note: Termination tools must be ordered separately.
Cable Routing and Clamping
Cable retention fixture is available for enhanced cable strain relief using cable ties. 4.8mm wide ties, Cables-ties can be ordered from GIRARD.
Interconnection to GIRARD's EZ-View system (in selected models)
Two 14-pin headers on the back of the EZ-Panel are used for connection to EZ-View Scanners. There is only one 14-pin header on EZ-Panels. Select Scanner to Group B EZ-Panel Attachment Cord according to the required length. The scanning signal is transmitted over pin 9 of the RJ-45. Pin 9 exists in nine-position RJ-45 jack and plug designs, used for these EZ-Panel models. A special patch cord for EZ-Panel, including an extra wire and special RJ-45 plugs is needed.
Indicators (in models adapted to EZ-View only)
Port identification indicators - 24/48 red LEDs. Connected ports are identified by a pair of activated LEDs. A single port can be identified and the corresponding LED activated by a remote control command from the network management station.
