The punchdowns work just fine, and are capable of handling gigabit Ethernet. Being as this is a patch panel, there's not too much to say about it. I've had my network up for a month using these.
Not knowing the exact setup of office users, hardware placement, IP phone locations, etc., I decided to patch things into our routers and other hardware rather than directly connecting each termination. We moved into a new office space that was already wired with CAT5. This definitely made the job quick and easy.
Quality similiar to Leviton at 1/3rd the price. We purchased these 12 Port Patch Panels for our installs if clients do not request or wish to pay the higher price for Leviton. No failures after 30 installs.
In both situations, mounting and wiring were simple tasks. Overall: very satisfied and would quickly purchase again if needed. I have now purchased two of these (style) panels for both by home and my brothers. I haven't had any problems with the panel popping out of the brackets, but I do agree with one reviewer the mounting bracket does feel a little weak.
What more could you want. Well it hangs on the wall and you can terminate all of your cables to it. I haven't had any issues with it falling off the wall, or cables coming undone so I say buy it.
