Frequently Asked Questions
What is an LGX footprint?
LGX refers to a standard industry physical dimension for fiber modules, ensuring they fit interchangeably in most standard rack-mount and wall-mount enclosures.
What does 1x16 mean?
This indicates the module takes one input fiber signal and splits it into sixteen individual output fiber signals.
Is this module suitable for outdoor use?
This module is designed for standard interior enclosures. Ensure your wall or rack enclosure provides the necessary environmental protection for your specific deployment.
What does LC/APC indicate?
It indicates the module uses LC-style connectors with an Angled Physical Contact (APC) polish, which is commonly used to minimize back-reflection in sensitive fiber networks.
Can this be mounted in a standard 19-inch rack?
Yes, when installed within a compatible LGX-style rack-mount enclosure or shelf, this module can be mounted in standard 19-inch rack systems.
