Overview

The Monoprice 108061 is a 12-port HDMI patch panel built for professional audio/video installations, control rooms, and data centers where organized cable management is essential. Fitting into a single 1U slot of any standard 19-inch equipment rack, it provides a centralized connection point for up to twelve HDMI lines, making it far easier to route, label, and service cabling compared to loose connections behind equipment.

As a passive patch panel, it uses direct HDMI female-to-female couplers from front to back, requiring no power and adding no processing delay to the signal path. This simplicity is its strength — there are no active components to fail, and maintenance is limited to swapping cables when needed. The black finish blends with standard rack equipment, and the panel's straightforward design makes it a practical choice for AV integrators looking to keep installations tidy and professional without overspending.
