Electrical patchboards, also known as patch panels or patch bays, are components used in electrical and electronic assemblies, boards, cards, and associated hardware. They are part of the supply class Electrical And Electronic Assemblies, Boards, Cards, And Associated Hardware in the supply group Electrical And Electronic Equipment Components.

Patchboards are used to organize and manage the connections between various electrical or electronic devices. They typically consist of a panel with multiple ports or jacks, where cables or wires can be plugged in. These ports are usually labeled or color-coded for easy identification.

The main purpose of an electrical patchboard is to provide a centralized location for connecting and disconnecting different devices or components. This allows for easy reconfiguration or troubleshooting of electrical or electronic systems. Patchboards are commonly used in telecommunications, computer networking, audio/video production, and other industries where multiple connections need to be managed.

By using patch cords or cables, users can easily route signals or power between different devices or modules. This flexibility makes patchboards a convenient solution for organizing and maintaining complex electrical or electronic systems.

Overall, electrical patchboards play a crucial role in facilitating the interconnection and management of various devices or components in electrical and electronic assemblies, boards, cards, and associated hardware.
