Fiber termination box Product Feature
Fiber termination box (FTB), known as optical termination box (OTB)
as well, is a compact fiber management product of small size. It is
widely adopted in FTTx cabling for both fiber cabling and cable
management. In some circumstances, fiber termination box can be
regarded as the mini size of fiber optic patch panel and optical
distribution frame (ODF)
Fiber Termination Box Classification
Currently, the market embraces a great amount of fiber optic
termination boxes and other devices for cable management. And the
names and model numbers of these fiber termination boxes vary from
the design and idea of different manufacturers. Hence to identify
the detailed classification of fiber termination box could be a
hard task.
Roughly, fiber termination box can be categorized as fiber optic
patch panel and fiber terminal box according to the size and
applications. Judging by the appearance, fiber patch panel is of
gibber size whereas fiber terminal box is smaller.
Fiber Patch Panels
Fiber Patch Panels are of wall mounted type or mounted type
usually with 19 inch size. Generally, there is a tray inside the
fiber box that helps to hold and protect the fiber links. Various
different kinds of fiber optic adapters can be pre-installed in
fiber patch panels as the interface, via which the fiber box could
connect with the external devices.
Fiber Terminal Boxes
Besides fiber patch panels, one can also count on fiber terminal
boxes for fiber distribution and organization. While typical fiber
terminal boxes are with 12 ports or 24 ports, 8 ports, 36 ports, 48
ports and 96 ports fiber are available in the markets now. They are
often installed with FC or ST adapters on the panel, either on the
wall or put in horizontal line.
According to the design, FTB can be further divided into wall mount
type and rack mount type.
The wall mount fiber termination boxes are designed for either
pre-connectorized cables, field installation of connectors, or
field splicing of pigtails. They offer an ideal solution for
building entrance terminals, telecommunication closets, main
cross-connects, computer rooms and other controlled environments.
The outdoor fiber terminal boxes are environmentally sealed
enclosures to distribute fibers for FTTX networks. They are also
designed for fiber splicing, termination, and cable management.
How to deisgn a Cabinet:
Use standard components and parts as much as possible to improve
the compatibility and versatility of parts to reduce production
time; use modular design as much as possible to divide the system
into several functional modules, and at the same time, it should be
replaced or repaired. The parts, components and functional modules
can be independently loaded and unloaded as much as possible, which
is convenient for organizing production, debugging and on-site
maintenance, such as lightning protection modules, fan modules,
dust filter modules, AC power distribution units, etc.
Structural design is closely related to processing technology and
assembly technology. Different processes have different structures.
The processing and assembly technology should be selected according
to the actual production, batch size, delivery cycle, and
processing cost of the enterprise. When the batch is small, laser
cutting can be used to reduce the cost of the mold. At this time,
the holes and blanking of the parts can be irregular, and the
design will be more flexible; when the batch is large, die stamping
is used to improve production efficiency. The blanking and blanking
must be regular and can be processed by existing molds, and the
design of the parts will be limited by the molds. Outdoor Telecom
cabinets are mostly welded, and manual welding is used for small
batches. Robotic laser automatic welding can be used for large
batches to improve efficiency and reduce deformation. At this time,
the feasibility of automatic welding of parts structure should be
considered.
The power supply system of outdoor telecom cabinet is installed in
the field environment, and the installation and maintenance
conditions are complex. The feasibility and convenience of
installation and maintenance operations, and the personal safety of
operators should be considered in the design. For example, switches
and buttons to be operated should be arranged at a height of 0.5m
to 1.8m; the display screen should be arranged at a height of 1.0m
to 1.6m; the parts to be dismantled and maintained should not be
too heavy, and the installation height should not be too high.
