# Copper Panel

The patch panels are self contained and powered directly from the scanner. The right side “StatB” LED indicates either “Panel Guidance” or “”Panel Power”. The left side “StatA” LED indicates panel polling. Each patch panel mounts in any standard 19” rack. Each panel connects to a scanner communication and data bus using standard Category 5e or better patch cords.
