How does a patch panel work? A little while back I installed cat5e cables around the house and now I'm ready to use them for internet.

From this photo:. Cable modem is likely attached to the cable at the lower right corner. Cable modem network jack goes to the internet port on your router.

Lan ports on the router are connected to the patch panel in the center. The yellow cat5/6 wires are networking to the rooms.

If you want TV's in different rooms, you can swap out which white cables are plugged into the top splitter (or get a different splitter with more ports, but the fewer times you split the signal, the better the signal is). The bottom splitter is the first split to the cable modem to give it the best signal. Yellow cable line is most likely the source, and white cable lines go to the various rooms. Blue wires should be for telephone. I don't see where the external connection is, so if you don't have a dial tone, it may not be connected to the demarcation outside.

If that's the case, either the last owner never used it, or they plugged in a voip box into a network and phone jack elsewhere in the house.

A patch panel does nothing except act as a connector for your cable. The RJ45 cable from the wall sockets terminates at the patch panel. This allows one to connect a patch lead from the patch panel and into the switch. Don't want a particular socket to be live, then simply don't patch it into a switch. Think of a patch panel like an extension box for extending Ethernet cables only. It keeps things neat, but serves no other function.

Usbstor in registry. A network switch enables data to pass through between it's ports. It's what actually connects clients into a network so that they can access the Internet, share data, and so on.

Internet Patch Panel

The switch routes all data to & from PC's, internet modem, server etc so that data can be exchanged between devices. A patch panel has a cable from say a port by a desk connected to it.

You then patch it to a switch to connect the desk port to your network. Think of the patch panel as just a bunch of network cables that in effect connect to nothing. The switch connects all the panels outputs to each other so that all the devices on the other end of the cables of your network can share data. The switch just sees incoming data and works out where to send it to - so PC1 wants to get onto the internet is routes the data between that PC and the internet modem, but PC2 wants to watch a movies stored on a server so the switch pulls the movies off and sends it to PC2.
