Description
12-port mini patch panel enclosure. Included STEP and Fusion 360 files so you can modify.
Dimensions (WxDxH): 255mm x 150mm x 51mm
Important notes:
- This model is 255mm long and only just fits on the print bed of my Bambu Carbon X1. The patch panel itself is ~254.5mm long.
- Threaded heat set inserts aren't all the same. Check the diameter of yours before printing and modify the model to fits yours.
- M5 diameter = 6.15mm, any length
- M3 diameter = 3.96mm, max 6mm long (these are parameters in Fusion 360 file)
My use case: I have a crawl space where network cables meet and needed a mini patch panel that:
- can be wall mounted on its base
- is fully enclosed to be resistant to dust
- very strong and will take abuse
- inexpensive
Parts I used:
- 12 port Keystone Patch Panel .. wow - only $7 at time of posting this.
- M5 and M3 threaded inserts
- M5 and M3 bolts
- Keystones
- Zip ties .. I had some old ones
Printing tips:
- I printed with 3 walls. Any filament will work. I chose PETG.
- Only a tinsy bit of support is needed on the (top) rear insert.
- My Print Profile includes modifier geometry to make the zip tie mounts very strong. That geometry is included in the Fusion file in the Base component.
