The FOTB-LGX-WP is a compact fiber optic wall mount termination box designed to accommodate a Fibertronics LGX adapter plate. This indoor patch panel facilitates the interconnectivity and termination of optical fibers.
In Fiber-To-The-Home (FTTH) applications, a termination box serves as a specialized distribution point for managing fiber cables. Its primary function is to terminate fiber optic cables and establish connections between the cable's core and pigtail. Typically, a termination box comprises three key components: the fiber connector protection element, internal components, and housing. The internal components, enclosed within an IP-rated housing crafted from durable, impact-resistant materials, safeguard against operational and placement-related damage. These components include fixtures, fixed fiber trays, and a support frame, with the latter being crucial for maintaining orderly fiber organization within the box.
For outdoor usage over extended periods, the components of the fiber termination box must be dustproof and possess strong corrosion resistance. The housing should facilitate easy opening and incorporate provisions for a lock to deter potential tampering.
Broadly, fiber termination boxes find utility in agricultural telephone networks, data and image transmission systems, and CATV cable TV series. They serve distribution and termination purposes in various fiber optic systems, enabling the interconnection of optical cables, patch cores, and pigtails. Additionally, fiber termination boxes facilitate the jointing of fiber pigtails and offer protection for fiber optic splices.
