Key Features Benefits Reduces network rack cabling installation time by 85% or more compared to loose Quick install capability cord cabling Ensures cleanly dressed IDF/MDF cabling and facilitates consistent cabling standard Factory-dressed, labeled, across regional and global sites and pre-bundled cabling Allows increased airflow and reduced cable manager size Small bundle size Enables easy and quick routing within tight spaces Lightweight and highly flexible Harnesses are readily available for common switch-to-panel cabling approaches, cable Multiple standard configurations bundle counts, and length requirements Application Information QuickNet SD Switch Harnesses provide an ideal solution in network racks (or IDFs/MDFs) where they replace the loose cord cabling between switches and patch panels. Depending on the type of cord connection used at the patch panel end, two basic types of harnesses are available: Switch Port Harnesses provide a plug-to-jack connection also known as switch port replication between switch ports and the patch panels, and replace individual equipment cords. On the panel end of the harness the modular jacks (either loose or contained in a cassette) are inserted into the patch panel from behind. Note: Cassette-ended switch port harnesses (all QPC part numbers) require the use of QuickNet Patch Panels. Switch Patching Harnesses provide a plug-to-plug connection between the switch ports and patch panel ports, and replace individual patch cords. The panel end of the harness has plugs which are inserted into the front of the patch panel.
