Ortronics Clarity 5E 48-port patch panel

The Ortronics Clarity 5E OR-PHD5E6U48 is a Cat5e high-density network patch panel that occupies 2U of rack space and provides 48 RJ-11 ports for structured cabling. Its 19-inch width fits standard equipment racks and the 3.5-inch height matches the 2U form factor.

Installers terminating up to 48 Cat5e links

This panel suits installers who need to terminate up to 48 Cat5e links in a compact 2U footprint. It is not for environments that require shielded ports, fibre connectivity or a higher port density than 48 connections in 2U.

48 RJ-11 ports in a 2U rack-mount frame

The defining specification is the 48 RJ-11 ports delivered in a 2U rack-mount frame measuring 19 inches wide by 3.5 inches high with a depth of .1 inches. This density determines whether the panel matches the available rack space and the required port count.

Questions about this item

Does the OR-PHD5E6U48 generate noise, heat or draw noticeable power when mounted in a rack all day?

The panel is a passive component with no fans or active electronics, so it produces no noise, no measurable heat and draws no power during continuous operation.

What rack hardware must I already own to install this 2U Clarity 5E patch panel?

You need a standard 19-inch rack or cabinet with at least 2U (3.5 inches) of vertical space and the appropriate cage nuts or screws for mounting.

Will my existing Cat 5 or Cat 5e patch cords work with the 48 RJ-11 ports on this panel?

The panel provides 48 RJ-11 ports wired for Cat5e performance, so standard Cat 5 or Cat 5e patch cords with RJ-11 plugs will connect and function correctly.
