Overview

2U Sliding Fiber Patch Panel Features

Termination, splicing and patching for 48 adapter positions in one 2U enclosure, serviced from the front of the rack.

  • 48 front adapter positions

    A 2U enclosure with 48 front adapter positions for standard 19-inch racks.

  • 96 fibers with LC duplex

    The LC duplex configuration supports 96 fibers for centralized fiber distribution.

  • Sliding drawer and fold-down door

    The drawer slides out and the front door folds down, so the panel is serviced from the front.

  • Internal splice trays

    Splice trays inside the drawer organize fusion splices and their protection sleeves.

  • Internal routing guides

    Routing guides keep pigtails and fiber slack in order during installation and service.

  • Configurable build

    Enclosure material, color, adapter type and pre-assembly can be customized.

Applications
  • Data centers
  • Telecom rooms
  • FTTH distribution racks
  • 19-inch rack installations

Installation

Installation and Packaging

  1. Secure the enclosure to the rack and fix the incoming cables before routing fibers to the splice trays.
  2. Route pigtails and fiber slack along the guides, follow the bend-radius requirements of the cable and fiber, and keep fibers clear of moving drawer parts and door hinges.
  3. Leave enough slack for drawer travel. Check that no fiber is trapped before closing, and keep unused optical ports capped.
