• 24LC ports deliver dense connection capacity for space efficiency
  Sliding panel design enables rear access for cable routing
  Multimode simplex operation supports short-reach network links
  Fibre reinforced plastic housing reduces weight while maintaining rigidity
  RoHS compliant construction minimises restricted substance content
  LC connectors ensure duplex-capable small-form-factor termination

Applications

• Ideal for data centre horizontal and patching frames
  Suitable for enterprise comms rooms requiring high port counts
  Used with multimode fibre trunks in campus networks
  Can be used for equipment interconnects in telecom cabinets
  Useful for consolidation points in fibre distribution systems

How does the panel facilitate cable management within a rack?

The sliding panel permits technicians to pull the module forward for rear cable access, simplifying routing and strain-relief installation without removing the entire assembly.

Which connector style does the unit accept and why is that relevant?

It accepts LC connectors, offering a compact termination profile that increases port density and reduces panel space per connection.

What environmental or material considerations affect installation?

The enclosure is made from fibre reinforced plastic, offering a lighter alternative to metal units which can ease mounting and handling in confined rack spaces.

Is the product intended for single-mode deployments?

No, it is configured for multimode use and is specified for simplex multimode fibre operating modes.
