Dabei ist die Platine 4 mit Leiterplattenkontakten 5 ausgebildet, wobei die Kontakte 5 nach dem Einstecken der Platine 4 in die Messerleiste 14 im Gehäuse 6 des Switch(bzw. Hub) 3 die Verbindung zu dem Switch (bzw. Hub) 3 herstellt. Die Leiterplattenkontakte 5 können gegebenenfalls auch seitlich angebracht sein (wie bei Zusatzplatinen in PC's). Auf der einsteckbaren Platine 4 ist auf einer Seite ein Bereich 7 mit Verbindungselementen 8 so angeordnet, dass der Bereich 7 mit den Verbindungselementen 8 nach dem Einstecken der Platine 4 aus dem Gehäuse 6 des Switch (bzw. Hub) 3 herausragt und die Verbindungselemente 8 zum Anklemmen von Verteilerkabeln 9 zugänglich sind. An den Verteilerkabeln 9 sind Endgeräte 10 (z. B. PC's) angeschlossen.In Fig. 1, a server 1 is shown, which is connected via a server cable 2 to a switch (resp. Stroke) of 3. The board 4 is formed with circuit board contacts 5, wherein the contacts 5 connects to the switch (or hub) 3 after the insertion of the board 4 in the male connector 14 in the housing 6 of the switch (resp. Stroke) 3. The circuit board contacts 5 can optionally also be attached laterally (as with additional boards in PCs). On the insertable circuit board 4 , an area 7 with connecting elements 8 is arranged on one side such that the area 7 with the connecting elements 8 protrudes from the housing 6 of the switch (or hub) 3 after the circuit board 4 has been inserted, and the connecting elements 8 for Clamping distribution cables 9 are accessible. Terminal devices 10 (for example PCs) are connected to the distribution cables 9 .

In der Variante nach Fig. 2 sind die Verbindungselemente 8 unmittelbar auf der Platine 4 des Switch (bzw. Hub) 3 so angeordnet, dass der Bereich 7 mit den Verbindungselementen 8 ebenfalls aus dem Gehäuse 6 des Switch (bzw. Hub) 3 herausragt.In the variant according to FIG. 2, the connecting elements 8 are arranged directly on the circuit board 4 of the switch (or hub) 3 such that the area 7 with the connecting elements 8 likewise protrudes from the housing 6 of the switch (or hub) 3 .

Der Bereich 7 mit den Verbindungselementen 8 kann bei beiden Varianten durch eine leicht lösbare Abdeckung 11 geschützt werden.The area 7 with the connecting elements 8 can be protected by an easily detachable cover 11 in both variants.

Beim Stand der Technik nach der Fig. 3 sind der Switch (bzw. Hub) 3 und ein Extra Patch Panel 12 getrennte Geräte, die über mehrere Patchkabel 13 mit zugeordneten Steckern und Buchsen 13 mit dem Switch (bzw. Hub) 3 verbunden werden müssen. Dabei entspricht die Anzahl der Patchkabel 2 der Anzahl der Endgeräte 10. In the prior art according to FIG. 3, the switch (or hub) 3 and an extra patch panel 12 are separate devices which have to be connected to the switch (or hub) 3 via a plurality of patch cables 13 with assigned plugs and sockets 13 , The number of patch cables 2 corresponds to the number of end devices 10 .
