How to connect the distribution frame and the switch

Whether it is the distribution frame in the work room or the distribution frame in the distribution room, its rear end is idle. The distribution frame in the work room is generally connected to the server with a network cable. The wiring in the distribution room The rack generally uses a network cable to connect it to the switch, so how is the patch panel and the switch connected? Then it depends on the type of patch panel and the connection method of the patch panel. Depending on the type and connection method, the connection scheme between the distribution frame and the switch will also be different.

Before the distribution frame is connected to the switch, first determine the storage location of the distribution frame and the switch, then select the appropriate length and quantity of network cables according to the needs, and finally perform the wiring connection according to the type and connection method of the distribution frame. The specific connection is as follows:

1.110 direct connection wiring scheme of patch panel

The direct connection wiring scheme adopts one of the above-mentioned distribution frame connection methods, and uses network cables to connect the distribution frame in the workshop and the distribution frame in the distribution room. Since the rear panel of the 110 patch panel is in the wiring mode, we need to patch the network cable, and we cannot use the network cable directly. 110 wiring type distribution frame wiring steps are as follows:

First use a wire stripper to peel off the shell of the network cable (the reserved length is 40MM), then drive the network cable into the clamp according to the international standard T568B or T568A wire sequence, and finally use the wire cutter to crimp the network cable and cut it.

Other cables can be driven into the distribution frame according to the above steps. It should be noted that the connected network cables need to be fixed on the cable support frame with cable ties, which can effectively protect the network cables and facilitate management and maintenance.

2. Straight-through distribution frame cross-wiring scheme

The cross-wiring scheme is another way of using the above-mentioned distribution frame connection method. Two distribution frames are added to the horizontal link, and one end of the two distribution frames in the horizontal link is connected by a network cable, and then the horizontal link is connected. The other ends of the two distribution frames in the road are respectively connected to the distribution frames in the work room and the distribution frames in the distribution room through network cables. Since the straight-through distribution frame is used, the distribution frame and the switch can be directly connected by a network cable. Note that the network cable is plugged into the electrical port of the switch.

Whether it is the network cabling of the data center now or in the future, a scalable and cable-manageable infrastructure is required, and the distribution frame can rely on its own scalability and management functions to meet the high-density/high-efficiency wiring requirements of the network cabling.
