applications
Opticom ® QuickNet ™ Rack Mount Fiber Cassette
Enclosures provide a system for managing fiber
terminations, connections, and patching in all types
of applications. The enclosures are a component of
the Opticom ® QuickNet ™ Fiber Cabling System. They
are ideal for fast, reliable patch field creation in
cross-connect or inter-connect main distribution
areas (MDA) or horizontal distribution areas (HDA)
for storage area network (SAN) patching. The
enclosure can also serve as a transition point for

pre-terminated MTP* interconnect or trunk cables
patched to active equipment in data center server
cabinets or LAN switch racks. The enclosures
provide high patch field densities with the FCE1U
housing up to 96 fibers in 1 RU, the FCE2U housing
up to 192 fibers in 2 RU, and the FCE4U housing up
to 288 fibers in 4 RU. Integral cable management,
bend radius control, and slack management features
protect fiber optic cables, patch cords, and
connectors to ensure end-to-end signal integrity.
