Patchsee

Have you ever disconnected the wrong patch cable?

IT patching installations tend to start off neat and tidy, however moves and changes are inevitable and the higher the density, the bigger the problem when it comes to identifying which patch cable goes where.

This is when Patchsee comes in to play as they offer a range of Cat5e, Cat6 and Cat6a copper patch cables that use a unique light technology installed within the patch cable to immediately identify the other end of the cable link.

Patchsee have been busy innovating for nearly 20 years and for most of that time Patch Solutions have been proudly promoting their solution.  With over 15 million cables sold in over 50 countries, they have now exceeded more than 100,000 corporate clients across all major markets.  Available in multiple lengths from 0.6m to 30m, FTP or UTP and PVC or LSZH jacket, there is a cable for every eventuality from a small server room to a large data centre. If you require mission critical network performance, then this is a fantastic solution to implement. 

Patchsee network cables are only available in a black coloured lead with an option of 16x coloured clips for easy first line identification of systems and applications, these snap securely onto each end of the cable.  The light technology really comes into its own when you are using longer length cables, perhaps for Zonal or Top of Rack deployments, where patch cables are being passed between racks.  The solution is then achieved by connecting a special torch to one end of the network cable, which in turns shines all the way through to the other end with either a stable or flashing coloured light.  Patchsee offers speeds of up to 10GBaseT and the system has a 5 year warranty applied with every cable having a unique serial number for full system traceability.

If you have a potential requirement and would like a friendly discussion, then please do not hesitate to get in touch.  We have various Patchsee scenarios installed in our demo suite and can send you a free demo kit including the new Cat6a slim cable, arrange a site survey to measure lengths of links and offer general advice around maintaining an intelligent copper infrastructure.

Patch Solutions Services

Here at Patch Solutions, we provide a premium range of Slim diameter RJ45 network patch cables, making them an ideal choice for high density installations, creating up to a 30% cable space saving.

Our ever-popular short length patch cables have been the preferred choice for new network patching installations for the past decade. They’re ideal for panel to switch port replication, making them a perfect option for 1U and 2U network patching.

Our Cat6 security patch cable design improves compliance across any organisation, helping to protect assets without the need for additional investment in access control systems.

Manufactured using a flat cable jacket, these duplex assemblies are three times the thickness of standard patch cables, providing a far more robust construction and making them ideal for inter-rack connections.

Manufactured using thicker 1.5mm² power cable, our IEC jumper extension cables are robust in their construction, yet flexible for ease of installation using a PVC H05VV-F cable jacket.

Compatible with 250v/15A equipment, they are designed to operate in high ‘HOT’ temperatures for longer periods of time, unlike the thinner 10A equivalent.

Secure retention sleeves are pushed over IEC connectors and plugs to provide a tighter fit to an installed power cable. Once in place, up to four times the force will be required for the power cable to be removed.

Quickly add a layer of physical security to your IT assets with a range of RJ Lockdown devices. Available as either cable locks or port block out devices, these are ideal for use in communal areas, preventing removals and connections of RJ45 cables, whether accidental or deliberate.

At Patch Solutions, we don’t only supply superior IT cabling products, but also offer a wide range of additional services, helping to create that perfect installation. Our popular cable labelling service allows us to recommend a solution that will match your needs.

Our controlled workshop facility is equipped to manufacturer a wide range of fibre solutions. Whether you’re looking for Tight Buffered or Loose Tube for internal use, or CST Armoured for use over a campus site, then you can rest assured that we have the right solution available.

Patch Solutions already hold in stock 1000’s of standard lengths, colours and IT terminations across copper, fibre, and power cables. However, it is not unusual for clients to want something very specific that is not seen as standard within the industry.
