3U component carrier module for 6 keystone connectors
This is a mechanical design to mount 6 keystone connectors in a 3U component carrier.
Why would one want to do that? You can get keystone modules inexpensively for virtually any [small] connector, like RJ45, RJ12, BNC, SMA, LC, USB-A, USB-B, ...
You can configure a keystone panel dynamically and quickly for the given use case of connector combinations. No need to do a custom face plate each time, so it's particularly useful in setups you're building once, where the design cost, machine setup cost and production delay of a custom face plate are prohibitive.
The module consists of two panels:
- the face plate to which the keystone modules are flush
- the back plate into which you snap the keystone modules
face plate
6 TE wide face plate
