Why are patch panels required for cabling network?

Patch panels are not required for cabling a network. They fulfill the function of centralizing connections in an area, and allow for easy movement of workstations from network to network. In a wiring closet you may find many different connections that have to be connected from a router to the workstations on the floor. With a patch panel you can connect multiple systems from a wiring closet using horizontal wiring to the work areas very easily. This makes it easier to create wired networks but it is not absolutely required.
