Descriptions
An Outdoor 16 Core SC Fiber Optic Distribution FDB (Fiber Distribution Box) is an enclosure used to protect and manage fiber optic cables in outdoor environments. It's designed for distributing and connecting optical fibers, particularly for telecommunications or data networks. Here's what each term refers to:
Outdoor : This indicates that the box is designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions, such as rain, dust, UV rays, and temperature fluctuations. It typically features a weatherproof, rugged housing.
16 Core : The box can accommodate and manage fiber optic cables with up to 16 individual fibers (or "cores"). Each core represents a single optical fiber that can carry data.
SC (Subscriber Connector) : SC is a common type of fiber optic connector used in telecommunications. It is a push-pull type connector with a square interface that ensures easy and secure connections.
Fiber Optic Distribution : The box is designed to distribute fiber optic connections from one main cable into multiple end-user connections. It's typically used where a single large fiber cable enters a building or outdoor location and needs to be split into individual connections.
FDB (Fiber Distribution Box) : The Fiber Distribution Box provides protection for fiber splicing, termination, and distribution. It secures and organizes the fibers to ensure that they are not damaged or exposed to environmental elements.
Compatible with Adapters : The box is compatible with SC adapters, which are used to connect or "adapt" different fiber optic cables together. These adapters provide a simple, secure connection between two fibers.
Compatible with Pigtails : Pigtails are short lengths of fiber optic cable that are pre-terminated with a connector on one end and have exposed fibers on the other end, ready to be spliced into the main fiber line. The box supports the use of these pigtails for connection purposes.
Main Features
Protection: The FDB box protects optical fibers from weather conditions and physical damage.
Organization: It organizes up to 16 fiber cores, making it easier to manage multiple connections.
SC Connector Compatibility: It supports SC adapters for connecting and splicing fibers.
Pigtail Support: It allows the use of pigtails for flexible and secure fiber splicing.
Outdoor-Rated: Weatherproof construction to handle outdoor deployment.
In summary, this box is used for securely distributing and protecting fiber optic cables in outdoor installations, offering a controlled environment for splicing, terminating, and connecting up to 16 fibers.
