Can I retrofit a brush panel without disconnecting the existing patch leads?

Normally, no. The connectors have to pass through the brush aperture, so existing connected leads will usually need to be unplugged during installation.

The open-ended ring version is much easier to retrofit around cables that must stay connected.

What is the brush opening actually for? Will an RJ45 plug with a bulky or snagless boot pass through the brush? Does the brush panel stop dust getting into the rack? Is there any advantage to the brush-only version if I do not need cables to pass front to rear?
