Fresh out of the ring with COVID, I'm here to tell you that the fever may have broken, but the heat is still on in the latest podcast episode where we dissect the intricacies of structured cabling. The battle lines are drawn between keystone and traditional patch panels, and we're not pulling any punches. With a minor technical hiccup on TikTok that couldn't hold us back, we march on to share the knowledge that'll make or break your telecom room setups. And if you think you've heard it all, wait until you hear about ethernet running through bananas—Mike Pinocchi from Fluke joins the fray to talk about this unexpected twist that'll have you questioning the limits of your network cables.

This episode isn't just about the clash of patch panels; it's a treasure trove of insights from the front lines of network cabling. We're talking densities, rack units, and the strategic deployment of these unsung heroes in your cabling arsenal. Ever wondered about the finer points of cross-connection or the sleek sophistication that comes with proper wire management? We're laying it all out, clear as a freshly terminated cable. And while I might've forgotten the actual panels on the show, I didn't forget to arm you with the knowledge you need to make informed decisions in your own cabling conquests.

Join us for a session that's just as informative as it is interactive. From the logistical leg-ups of Keystone panels to the old-school charm of traditional patch panels, we're weighing the pros and cons, with my personal preferences and your experiences taking center stage. Wire management might be a recommendation, but in our book, it's a must for that neat, professional finish. So tune in, turn up the volume, and get ready to have your allegiances tested in this epic saga of patch panel supremacy. Mike and I can't wait to hear your take in the great debate that's more than just a matter of personal taste—it's about shaping the future of structured cabling.
