Abstract
A data distribution panel includes a conductive panel having openings for the receipt of electrical data connector from the rear thereof. Shielded data connectors are installed from the rear of the panel and are electrically commoned to the panel. The electrical connectors are in the form of shielded subassemblies which, when interconnected to the panel, are commoned by a finger which extends from the panel thereby contacting the subassemblies. The panel is for use with a patch cable having at each end, connectors which can be latchably interconnected to the panel to interconnect shielded subassemblies together. An interface member is also available which can interconnect electrical connectors thereto which have T-bars and T-slots.
