Black Box IOP12SM-LC24-LC24-A-1165 12-Strand Fiber Optic Patch Panel
Overview
The Black Box IOP12SM-LC24-LC24-A-1165 is a 1U rackmount fiber optic patch panel designed for high-density network infrastructure. It provides a termination point for 12 strands of single-mode fiber, facilitating clean cable management and easy connectivity within server racks or telecommunications closets. This panel is suitable for environments requiring structured cabling for data transmission, such as data centers, enterprise networks, and surveillance systems where reliable fiber optic links are critical.
Compatibility
This patch panel is designed for use with standard 12-strand single-mode fiber optic trunk cables terminated with LC duplex connectors. It is compatible with any network switch, router, or server equipped with LC duplex single-mode ports. The panel's 1U form factor ensures compatibility with standard 19-inch rack systems commonly found in IT infrastructure.
Installation Notes
Installation involves securing the panel within a standard 19-inch rack using the provided mounting hardware. Fiber optic trunk cables are routed to the rear of the panel and terminated using appropriate splicing or connectorization methods (not included). The front LC duplex connectors provide access points for patch cords to connect to active network equipment. Proper fiber optic handling procedures, including cleaning connectors and avoiding sharp bends, are essential during installation to maintain signal integrity.
