Hi All Occasionally I will install a patch panel for the customer. I find them a pain and not as flexible as a 66 block, however I have recommended them and always install them when a customer requests them.
I always construct them my self using jacks and blank panels. I take the amphenol and run 3 pair to the first jack and to the adjacent jack I put down the analog pair. This costs a little more, however if you need to break out the analog pair, it is easy. Then when someone wants to loop the analog pairs around, you just use a splitter and some short patch cords you make up. Just my 2 cents.
