Overview
The 4X SHD Breakout Cassette is a high-density, modular solution engineered to facilitate the transition between duplex LC patch cables and multi-fiber MPO trunk cables. By streamlining this connection point, it helps reduce installation time and optimizes space within dense network infrastructures.
Designed for integration with the 1RU 4X SHD Cassette Enclosure (p/n F1RM1RU4XHD), this system allows for a capacity of up to 96 fibers in a 1RU space when fully populated with four cassettes. It is constructed for reliability using high-grade optical components and factory-tested performance standards.
