The NKFP24Y patch panel is designed to accept Keystone style modules. For Mini-Com modules, please verify compatibility with Panduit documentation or support, as not all Mini-Com modules are compatible with Keystone-style panels.

1. Ensure the patch panel is securely mounted.
2. Take a compatible Keystone module (e.g., Category-6 UTP, fiber optic, or audio/video).
3. Align the module with an empty port on the front of the patch panel. The module should snap into place with a gentle push. Ensure it is fully seated and secure.
4. Repeat for all desired ports.
5. For module removal, gently press the release tab (if present on the module) or use a small flat-head tool to carefully pry the module out from the front.
