Cable Keystone Patch Box

Cable Keystone Patch Box

Description

# Cable Keystone Patch Box A cable patchbox that uses standard wall-jack keystones for desk mounting. The original intent of this design was to connect PCs and peripherals to the patch boxes using short cables, and then route the cables with fixed wiring underneath the desk. That way you can reduce cable mess on your desk, as well as easily change out the PCs at various stations. Other uses are possible.

Note that at this time it is "delicate", and changing it more than once may cause the model to break. In that case be sure not to save the model, re-open it in FreeCAD, and try a different parameter for the number of keystones.
