OPTIC FIBER LIU/FDMS/FIBER BOX/ FMS/ODF

A fiber optic patch panel or FDMS or LIU is commonly described as the interface panel that Creates Patch or Bond between Optic cables and optical equipment. Patch panels are Rack-mountable onto 19”, 21”and 23” rack systems, Wall Mountable, Din Rail Mountable, and Table Mountable Types.

In physical terms, it is usually a metal enclosure that houses adapter panels, fiber splicing trays and space for excess fiber storage. Its basic construction consists of an array of ports where each port interfaces with another patch cable which is connected with optical equipment located elsewhere in the building. The adaptor panel provides an interface for both outside and inside ports to the enclosure. The inside ports are fixed as the cables are not meant to be disconnected at any point, whereas the outside ports are for fiber patching cables that can be plugged and unplugged for connections as required.

The splicing trays are neatly embedded in the enclosure to provide fusion with fiber optics pigtails which in turn plug into the fixed inside adapter ports of the adapter panel.
