Anybody ever work with knockout connector panels?

passenger · 23rd March 2008

I bought a Middle Atlantic UNI-2, 2 space universal connector panel. It has lazer cutouts that you push out. I'm finding it very hard to get the tiny pieces out. Any tips? Do i drill it, poke it? hammer it out with a chisel.... Kinda stuck here.

I have used some to build up some quick racks for a p.a. rig and they were not too difficult to deal with.
It was about five years ago, so I kinda' forget how I knocked out the holes.
It still looks OK and is in occasional use.

I usually use a drill and a Greenlee punch.

The small screw holes in the Middle Atlantic panels might just be there as a guide.
You might need to drill them.

The holes knock out in sections.
