Hi
Patch panels are very useful for pc's and voice equipment that get moved around a building a lot. It may seem pointless to have one now but remove it and you will regret it at a later date.
The patch panel I administer (one of them) uses both voice and data, if a user moves dept or a new employee starts then installing a new phone and pc is a doddle! (as long as the wallpoints and cabling to patch panel infrastructure exists already)
Color coding or numbering helps a lot. Then logging where everything is connected is the fun bit
