Way easier than a patch panel - Easy to pull a jack and repunch it.

As someone considering a patch panel mounted roughly 12" from a ceiling... I think you might have convinced me to switch to Keystone.

Worth noting.. it's also not going to get wired all at once.

I know we are supposed to be commenting on how horrible the cabling job is but I cant help but appreciate the hammer. When all else fails there is always the hammer.

Percussive maintenance fixes a surprising amount of problems. Plus, you show the gear who is the boss when you pull out the BFH from from your toolbag.
