Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Mount the panel into a standard 19-inch rack using the adjustable mounting brackets. Secure the rack ears. Route incoming fibre optic cables to the rear of the panel, utilizing the available knock-outs for cable entry and glands. Slide out the access tray to perform splicing or connect existing cables to the pre-loaded SC simplex duplex adapters. Once connections are made, slide the tray back into place. Attach patch cords to the front of the recessed SC adapters.

Care: Keep the panel clean and free from dust, especially the fibre optic connector openings. Use compressed air or specialized fibre optic cleaning tools to clean the SC adapter ferrules if necessary. Avoid touching the ceramic sleeves inside the adapters.
