Panduit FHC39N-24H-10U HD Flex Conversion Cassette

Overview

The Panduit FHC39N-24H-10U is an OS2 HD Flex™ conversion cassette designed for structured fiber optic cabling systems. This unit addresses the need to bridge different fiber connector types within a high-density infrastructure, specifically converting MPO trunk connections to LC duplex interfaces for server or switch port termination. Its universal configuration supports a variety of deployment scenarios where mixed connector types are present, such as in data centers or enterprise network closets. The polycarbonate material offers durability for these environments.

Compatibility

This cassette is designed for use with Panduit HD Flex™ enclosures and fiber optic panels. It interfaces with MPO-8 male connectors on the input side and LC duplex connectors on the output. The OS2 single-mode fiber type ensures compatibility with high-bandwidth, long-distance applications common in modern data networks. It is intended for integration within the Panduit fiber-optic-systems product line.

Installation Notes

The cassette utilizes a 4-to-1 conversion ratio, connecting three MPO (8-fiber) inputs to twelve LC duplex outputs. Ensure proper connector alignment during MPO insertion to prevent fiber damage. The overall dimensions are 9 inches wide by 10.1 inches high, designed to fit standard Panduit fiber management systems. The polycarbonate construction means it should be protected from excessive impact or stress during installation and operation.
