The revolutionary new Coolport
provides an instant method for adding more devices to a single cable port -
ideal in emergency situations where not enough network outlets are
available, or when the cost or disruption caused by installing additional
cabling is prohibitive.
Each Coolport features 3 ports that enable you to connect up to 3 different
devices (such as PC, Telephone or Fax) to one 4 pair cable. All 3 devices
are then continuously available.
Easily mounted onto a desk or wall, Coolports are supplied in pairs, with
one connected to a wall outlet and the other to a patch panel, using launch
leads.
Four different Coolport types are available:

Technical Description:
Many services used over Category 5 cable only require two pairs. Because Cat
5 cable contains 4 pairs, two pairs may not therefore be currently utilised.
Coolport transposes the pairs used by two to three services enabling these
spare pairs to be utilised. To enable the conversion back at the comms room
or cabinet another Coolport is required. Alternatively, in situations
incorporating a number of Coolports, a Coolport patch panel is recommended.
Four types of Coolport are available, depending on the services required
(see back). Two or three of the RJ45 jacks located at the front of the
Coolport connect to the user equipment, while the single jack located at the
back connects to the Category 5 cable or wall outlet.
Another Coolport is then used to convert the cable back for connection to a
standard 19 patch panel located in either a telecommunication closet or
computer equipment room.
Each Coolport features high quality components. The case is made from rugged
translucent ABS plastic, the PCB boards are specially designed by
HellermannTyton, and the RJ45 jacks used are of the highest quality
construction. Completely assembled by HellermannTyton, every Coolport is
also performance tested at our factory and is backed by our lifetime
manufacturer guarantee.
Choose the Coolport set
that will best suit your requirements.
Its important to remember that in every installation, at least two
Coolports are required - one at the desk area, for connection to the nearest
wall outlet, and another within the comms room, (or communications equipment
cabinet) for connection to a 19 patch panel.
Installation is plug-and-play, as all connections are made using RJ45 jacks
and plugs. For more permanent fixing to either a wall or desk, self adhesive
pads are included, and screw fixing slots are also located at the base of
each Coolport.
There are four different Coolport variations available - each coloured
differently to enable users to quickly identify the services which can be
connected (see services schematics to the right). |

Coolport Kits:
The Coolport outlets are available in Kit form (pre-packed with two 6
launch leads, two 2m patch cords, plus two adhesive fixing pads).
