Patch Panels are central switching gears between audio equipment. Patch panels are used to switch and route analog and digital audio signals from and to equipment in recording studios, broadcast studios or trucks, churches, stadiums, etc.
First of all it is not recommended to run phantom power through a patch panel. We do not suggest using phantom power with any patch panel.
Yes it can. We suggest grouping the digital and analog signals together. There should be at least four unused jacks between the analog and the digital circuits, this will avoid “bleeding over” of digital signals to audio signals (cross talk of low level clicking noises).
