what are your views on patch panels?
I know there are a lot of angles you could bring up when asking this question.
I am simply curious if you think patch panels belong in the data center?
I am not talking about the building structured cabling, campus LAN, etc.
I am talking Server <-> Switch
Do you think a single Ethernet Patch Cable (Male RJ45 to Male RJ45) is best?
Do you think that there should be a structured cable that is punched down on the back of a patch panel and then goes to a male RJ45 to plug directly into a server and use a short patch cable to go from the patch panel to the switch?
