ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for patching cables includes a panel 10, FIG. 2 having a patch side for exposing patching connectors, and a punch-down side opposite the patch side for exposing punch-down terminals associated with the connectors. A bracket 12, FIG. 2 supports the panel in a vertical position with the patch side exposed to users. Pivots attach one edge of the panel to the bracket so that the panel can be tilted about the pivot into a position in which the patch side is no longer exposed to users and the punch-down side is exposed to users. There is a supporting surface 40, FIG. 2 for supporting the patch side, when tilted, sufficiently to permit punching down of wires on the punch-down side. The panel may include color coded marking on the patch side for classifying the connector application.
