Frequently Asked Questions
What does the LGX footprint mean?
The LGX footprint is a standardized mounting design used in fiber optic enclosures, ensuring the module can be easily snapped into place without proprietary hardware.
Is this module compatible with existing SC/APC patch panels?
This specific part is configured with LC/APC adapters. Please verify your patch panel connector type or consider our SC/APC variants if needed.
What is the primary benefit of PLC technology?
PLC (Planar Lightwave Circuit) technology provides superior uniformity and stability over wider wavelength ranges compared to older FBT-based splitters.
Can this be mounted in a standard rack?
Yes, this module is designed for use in standard LGX-style rack or wall mount enclosures.
Does this module include fiber optic patch cables?
No, patch cables are typically purchased separately based on your specific routing needs.
