    Abstract: Port occupancy detection for connector panels is provided. In one embodiment, a connector panel comprises: a communications unit communicatively coupled to a network; and at least one modular port adapter assembly comprising: a plurality of communications couplers; and a plurality of port occupancy sensors each coupled to a sensor circuit. Each of the port occupancy sensors are configured to sense when the couplers are occupied. The panel communications unit obtains from the sensor circuit which of the couplers are occupied. The panel communications unit communicates port occupancy information to a gateway indicating circuit which of the couplers are occupied. A chassis including sidewalls extends between a front and a rear to define an interior, and including guides on the sidewalls. A plurality of blades mounted to the guides of the chassis, each blade including a midplane bus assembly configured to communicatively couple the sensor circuit to the panel communication unit.
