Ultimate Cable Organization
The Patchbox One Cassette revolutionizes rack cable management with its innovative retractable pulley mechanism. Unlike traditional patch cables that create clutter and tangles, the cassette stores excess cable length neatly inside its compact housing. This saves up to 50% more rack space by eliminating bulky cable managers, improves airflow, and dramatically reduces maintenance time. IT technicians can work faster and more accurately, with downtimes reduced by up to 90%.
Build Your Custom Rack
The Patchbox One Cassette is designed to work with the Patchbox One Frame, which holds up to 24 individual cassettes. Mix and match cable types (Cat.6a STP, Cat.6a UTP, or Fiber Optic), lengths (8RU, 30RU, 46RU), and colors to create the perfect setup for your network infrastructure. Each cassette is backward compatible with Patchbox Plus+ and 365 systems, offering flexibility for growing and evolving IT environments.
Professional-Grade Construction
Engineered and manufactured in the EU, the Patchbox One Cassette features ABS and RAL9001 cassette profiles, Polyoxymethylene (POM) plastic parts, and a flat Cat.6a U/FTP cable with AWG36, 100% stranded copper conductors, and a durable PVC jacket. The RJ45 shielded plug has gold-plated pins and snagless boots for reliable, long-lasting connections. Tested to the highest industry standards and RoHS compliant.
Perfect for Data Centres & Network Racks
Whether you're building a new network rack, upgrading an existing installation, or managing a data centre, the Patchbox One Cassette makes cabling simpler, faster, and more organized. Ideal for network administrators, IT professionals, and system integrators who demand high-speed connectivity, visual cable management, and scalable infrastructure that grows with your business.
