ADC’s Optical Normal Through Panel is the latest addition to its Pro Patch line of broadcast patching products. This fiber panel is designed to provide patch by exception, normal through functionality, similar to copper-based patch panels. Traditional fiber patch panels require a fiber jumper to be in place at all times. With this newly designed panel, however, all fiber “Source” and “Destination” connections are on the rear of the panel, with a normal through connection between the “Source” and “Destination” ports. For greater convenience and reliability, patch and monitoring capabilities are accessed on the front of the panel | Module Front Module Rear Chassis Open ADC s Optical Normal Through Panel is the latest addition to its Pro Patch line of broadcast patching products.

Features SPEC SHEET Two density options The 3RU chassis houses 6 modules to provide 24 fiber terminations 12 pairs using simplex connectors SC FC ST . The 4RU chassis houses 6 modules to provide 48 fiber terminations 24 pairs using small-form-factor connectors LC . Functionality Each module contains pairs of Source and Destination fibers plus optional monitor ports and a switch for emergency patching. Accommodates 1310 and 1550 singlemode wavelengths switch wavelength range is 1290-1330 and 1525-1610 . Connector ports on front and rear may be SC FC ST or LC. IL through module is approximately dB final specifications TBD . Module port is configurable to 90 10 95 5 or 99 1 split ratios. 1-952-9 Module specifications Modules may be added to the chassis as needed. Source and Destination terminations may be made by either splicing raw cable to pigtails attached to the modules or by routing connectorized patch cords to the back of the modules. Manual switch on front of module to change to Patched operation. LED indicators for Normal and Patched operations. Modules are available with or without monitor ports on the front.
