Abstract
Description
- This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/656,253, filed Feb. 25, 2005, and 60/765,316, filed Feb. 3, 2006, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.
- The present invention is directed to an angled patch panel for a network equipment rack and, more particularly, an angled patch panel having a plurality of connectors mounted at an acute angle relative to the faceplate surface. Preferably, the connectors are mounted substantially perpendicular to the plane of the network equipment rack.
- Angled patch panels are known in the art, as shown and described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,866,541. In prior angled patch panels, connectors are oriented orthogonal to the faceplate surface. This angled configuration allows cables exiting the front of the connectors to flow directly to one or more vertical cable managers located adjacent the network rack and, thus, eliminates the need for horizontal cable management.
- However, prior angled patch panels have some drawbacks. Because the connectors extend rearward of the patch panel a substantial distance and are angled inward toward an imaginary center line due to their orthogonal orientation, there is a possibility of connector interference on the rear side of the patch panel near the center. Moreover, the plugs installed in the connectors at each end of the frame adjacent the mounting members are oriented at an acute angle to the vertical rails of the network rack. Thus, in high density patch panels such as the one shown in
FIGS. 1-4 wherein the rows of connectors are closely spaced, it is difficult to access these plugs. However, orienting the connectors parallel to the vertical rails of the network rack alleviates this problem. - It is desirable to provide a patch panel with additional rear side connector and cabling clearance.
- It is also desirable to provide a patch panel with better accessability to plugs installed in connectors adjacent the vertical rails of the network rack.
- An angled patch panel is mountable to a network rack. The angled patch panel includes a patch panel frame, rack mounting members provided on opposite longitudinal ends of the frame, and a plurality of connectors mountable on the frame. The frame has a first panel section and a second panel section angled relative thereto by an obtuse angle between 90° and 180°. The first and second panel sections each define a front surface, and the plurality of connectors are oriented at an acute angle α relative to the front surface of either the first or second panel sections.
- Preferably, the rack mounting members define a mounting plane M, and the acute angle a is substantially orthogonal to the mounting plane M. The acute angle α is oriented between an axis A orthogonal to the mounting plane M and an axis B orthogonal to the front surface of either the first or second panel sections.
- Preferably, the frame includes a centerpiece at the intersection of the first and second panel sections.

FIGS. 1-4 are directed to a high density angled patch panel utilizing four, twelve-position faceplates for a total of forty-eight ports in one rack unit. One rack unit is 1.75 inches high under the EIA/TIA standard. However, it is likewise contemplated that the patch panel may include any number of faceplates having any number of positions. For example, the patch panel may include only two, twenty-four position faceplates. -
FIG. 1 shows a fully loaded high densityangled patch panel 10. As best seen inFIG. 2 , thepatch panel 10 includes aframe 12, a plurality of faceplates, such asfaceplate 14, and a plurality of connectors, such asconnector 16. Moreover, a separate or integralcable support bar 18 may be provided on a rear side of thepatch panel 10. Preferably, theframe 12 is metal, and thefaceplate 14 is plastic. However, it is likewise contemplated that theframe 12 may be formed of any suitable rigid material, such as many plastics or composites. - The outwardly angled
central frame 12 defines at least two angled faceplate surfaces, as theframe 12 has a plurality of faceplate openings 20 (seeFIG. 2 ). Theframe 12 also has amounting member 22 at each end with a plurality ofmounting apertures 24, as shown inFIGS. 1 and 2 . Theframe 12 further includes acenterpiece 26 located midway along theframe 12 to space thefaceplate openings 20 on opposite halves of thecentral frame 12. - As shown in
FIG. 2 , theframe 12 has atop flange 28 including a plurality of rectangular apertures, such asaperture 30. Similarly, theframe 12 has abottom flange 32 including a plurality of rectangular apertures, such asaperture 34. Theapertures faceplates 14 to be snapped into the rear side of theframe 12. Moreover, as best seen inFIG. 2 , each half of theframe 12 includes a vertically-oriented separator portion 36 to add strength to theframe 12. - Both the
frame 12 and thecable support bar 18 are designed to mount on anetwork rack 38. Theframe 12 can be any size, but preferably is sized with a width W (seeFIG. 3 ) to fit within a conventional network rack, such as a 19″ or 23″ EIA rack. The invention is not limited to such EIA racks, but is equally applicable to other known or subsequently developed racks. Moreover, thenetwork rack 38 need not be an open frame structure as in the above EIA racks, but may include mounting cabinets or enclosures having mounting features and walls defining openings that can receive and affix rack elements, such as theframe 12 and vertical cable managers. Therack 38 has spaced vertical rails orlegs 40 andvarious mounting openings 42 to facilitate equipment mounting. When mounted, theframe 12 protrudes out from the front of therack 38 by a distance D of several inches, as shown inFIG. 3 , due to the outwardlyangled frame 12. -
FIG. 3 shows a top view of theangled frame 12. As shown therein, theframe 12 is angled outwardly in a generally inverted V-shape. Each half of thecentral frame 12 is preferably a mirror image and front faceplate surfaces thereof are angled from the other by an angle φ, which is an obtuse angle between about 90°and 180°, preferably an angle φ between about 100°to 140°, and more preferably an angle φbetween about 110° and 130°. The illustrative embodiment shown has an angle φ of about 120°. - Each half of the
frame 12 is also angled relative to themounting members 22 at an angle θ and themounting members 22 are oriented in the same plane and parallel to the mounting plane of the front sides of thevertical rails 40 of thenetwork rack 38. The angle θ is an acute angle of preferably not more than 45°,preferably between about 20° to 40°, and more preferably between about 25° and 35°. In the illustrative example, the angle θ is about 30°. While thecentral frame 12 is shown and described as being symmetrical, it is to be understood that the patch panel sections could be disposed at different angles relative to themounting members 22 and, thus, be of different lengths. - As shown in
FIG. 2 , thefaceplate openings 20 receivefaceplates 14, andfaceplates 14 are sized to fit within theopenings 20, preferably by snap fit. As best seen inFIG. 2 , thefaceplate 14 has twocantilever tabs 44 along a top surface thereof, and two cantilever tabs (not shown) along a bottom surface thereof. Thecantilever tabs 44 engage with theapertures faceplate 14 to be snapped into theframe 12. However, rather than removable faceplates,faceplates 14 may be integrated into theframe 12. Thefaceplates 14 and theopenings 20 may be multiple rack unit heights or may be sized as a single rack unit height, as shown. -
FIG. 2 shows an exploded view offaceplate 14 loaded with twelveconnectors 16. Twoother faceplates 14 withconnectors 16 are already loaded into theframe 12. In this illustrative example, theframe 12 has a total of fourfaceplates 14, each with a capacity of twelveconnectors 16 for a total capacity of forty-eight connection ports in a one rack unit space. However, this is merely illustrative. Any number offaceplates 14 may be provided. -
Connectors 16 may take many forms, such as electrical, optical, telecommunications-related or other known or subsequently developed connectors for connecting cabling. Preferred connectors are capable of connecting Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP), Screened Twisted Pair (ScTP), coaxial and/or fiber optic cables used in the telecommunications industry to transmit data, voice, video and/or audio information. While twelveconnectors 16 perfaceplate 14 are shown, this is merely illustrative. Fewer or greater numbers ofconnectors 16 perfaceplate 14 may be provided. - As shown in
FIG. 4 , theconnectors 16 are mounted and oriented at an acute angle a relative to the faceplate surface. That is, theconnectors 16 have cable receiving surfaces oriented to longitudinally extend at an angle a and receive cabling on rear and front sides in line with this angle α. In this exemplary embodiment, angle α is substantially orthogonal to plane M (seeFIG. 3 ), which is the mounting plane ofvertical rails 40. - In a second exemplary embodiment, as shown in
FIG. 5 , angle β is an acute angle representing the angle between a plane extending across the front of aconnector 16 and plane M. As in the first embodiment, θ is the angle at which a section offrame 12 is angled relative to plane M. In the embodiment shown inFIG. 3 , for example, β would be 0°. In the embodiment ofFIG. 5 , β is at an acute angle between 0° and θ. - The aforementioned features work together to increase the functionality of the inventive patch panel. For example, the acutely angled connectors better manage the cabling on the rear side of the patch panel by reducing the interference of cabling on the rear side. Thus, by the acute angling, interference near an imaginary centerline rearward of
centerpiece 26 can be eliminated. This arrangement can also provide improved front side cable management. For example, there may be better accessability to plugs installed in theconnectors 16 adjacent thevertical rails 40 of thenetwork rack 38. - While the invention has been shown and described in conjunction with specific exemplary embodiments, the invention is not limited to these. It will be obvious to those skilled in the art that changes and modifications may be made without departing from the teachings of this invention and that the matter set forth in the foregoing description and accompanying drawings is offered by way of illustration only and not as a limitation.
