A Patch Panel Service is a managed termination and connection point supplied by a colocation provider, where a customer's cabling is presented on a structured panel so that cross-connects and moves-adds-changes can be made without accessing the customer's cabinet. It centralizes and documents connectivity, simplifies provisioning and keeps cable management orderly within the facility's distribution scheme.
