Is there an active patch panel?

Question

network hardware

I decided to put things in order in the server room with wires, and I was interested in such a question: is there an active (with indicators) Patch panel?
The fact that the patch panel is passive equipment does not need to be reminded to me.

Answer 1

Yes, I have. A switch is called, in which all ports are scattered in pairs on separate VLANs.
By the way, I’m almost serious, for example, I have a D-Link DGS-1016 lying around, distributes the network to three computers, I’ll be happy to screw it as an active patch panel as soon as the need arises =)

And you read a recent topic right there on Habré SCS with intelligence. Molex MIIM System ? If not, read it, it's interesting, just about active patch panels and generally improving the performance of SCS. Although it costs a lot.
