Fiber optical patch panel is a terminal box to manage fiber optic cable and pigtails and to protect and distribute fiber optic links in fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) networks. One end is a fiber optic cable and the other end is a fiber optic pigtail or fiber optic patch cord.
A rack mount fiber optic patch panel is a device used for organizing and managing fiber optic cable and connections in a standard equipment rack. The fiber optic patch panel is designed to be mounted in a standardized 19 inch equipment rack, typically occupying 1U or multiple U spaces depending on the capacity required.
Rack mount fiber optic patch panel come in various configurations and can support different types of fiber optic connectors, including SC, LC, ST, or MPO/MTP connectors. They allow for easy access, maintenance, and troubleshooting of fiber optic connections within the rack.
Rack mount fiber optic patch panel can be classified based on different factors:
Optical Fiber Capacity: Fiber optic patch panel can be categorized based on their optical fiber capacity, which refers to the number of fiber optic connections or ports they can support. They come in various configurations, such as 24 core, 48 core, 96 core or higher, depending on the density and scalability requirements of the network.
Fiber Optic Adapter or Splice Tray: Rack mount fiber optic patch panels can be classified as fiber adapter panels or fiber splice trays. Fiber adapter panels have pre-installed fiber optic adapters to directly connect fiber optic patch cable, while fiber splice trays for splicing and organizing fiber optic cables.
Fiber Optic Enclosure Type: Rack mount fiber optic patch panels can have different types, such as sliding, fixed, or modular fiber optic enclosures. Sliding enclosures allow easy access to the rear side of the fiber optic patch panel, facilitating cable management. Fixed fiber optic enclosures have a solid structure, while modular fiber optic enclosures offer flexibility in terms of adding or removing components.
