	Question by Tony Farrell posted 19 May 2001

Is there a special layout positions for fiber, data, voice patch panels in a 7x19 rack? In other words are the fiber patch panel at the top, data at the center and voice at the bottom or the other way around or no particular order? Help please. Thank you

Hi, Tony! In fact, it's you who defines the panel layout. The basic principles for this decision is simple: (1) administration should be as easy as possible (2) patch cords lenghts should be minimized Often, the layout looks like this (from top to bottom): * fiber panels * network hub * data panels * voice panels Best regards, Roman Kitaev, RCDD
