Overview Of DIN Rail Fiber Optic Patch Panel

By Lucia Weeks


The wiring of patchbay is designed so as to group together in a logical manner, by the type and use, all wiring connected, so that it is easy to test them, monitor them or interconnect, with a greater flexibility of use with respect to a fixed installation. Disconnecting electric utilities, for connections to a plant's theatrical stage lights (DIN Rail Fiber Optic Patch Panel).

In turn, in a form to complete normalization can take the signal without interrupting transit. A forcing of output signal, however, the interrupt. In case of a module seminormalizzato instead, a rope is inserted into an input output will interrupt the transit of signal. For the benefit of matrix, there is the fact that each signal can be sent to any destination without any limit to amount of times it is used, while the patchbay is inevitably limited by the availability of multiple copies of a signal, in typically from a distributor but nonetheless present in a limited number of copies.

With the matrix, it is also possible to realize switching more quickly and without interrupting the signal, while the patchbay requires a certain time of physical intervention on the panels and the interruption in signal between a connection and the other. For the benefit of patchbay, there are the much lower cost, reliability and transit totally passive transit signal, regardless from the power supply and the proper functioning of any electronic device.

In common practice, in any case, the patchbay and matrix coexist, generally by cutting all the inputs and outputs of matrix. This allows to realize simple by-pass in case of emergency. There is also the advantage of not having to put in array signals used rarely, if necessary, that are still available on the patchbay.

This is useful, for example when the microphone input of a mixer, where, according to microphone often a preamplifier (integrated in mixer or external), an equalizer and a compressor in a row are connected. Each trail with each other via a socket pair distribution box is completed, the output of previous device is usually above, the input of next down.

The modular structure allows to compose patchbay capable of routing connections of different types of signals on same panel, saving space if the number of signals is limited. Typically, in a panel on top rack unit can accommodate 24/26 modules. You can make a panel with, for example, video connections 8, 10 and 6 serial audio.

Naturally it is not possible to cross between them two types of different signals. As a general rule, although it is not a fixed rule, the top line of panel receives incoming connections to patchbay (and then the outputs of machines), while the lower sends outgoing connections (and therefore to inputs machines ).

It has many other advantages such as low signal loss, reduced size and weight, immunity to electromagnetic and radio frequency emissions and safety. As a result of studies focused on optical physics, a new method of use for light called laser beam was discovered.
