DIGITUS DN-96894 — DIN-Rail Fiber Splice Distributor, 6 × SC simplex / LC duplex
6 × SC simplex or LC duplexTS35 DIN railAngled frontAluminium · grey
The DIGITUS DN-96894 is a compact fiber optic splice distributor that clips onto a TS35 DIN rail and terminates an incoming fiber cable onto 6 SC simplex or 6 LC duplex adapters. It is built for FTTH, industrial and building networks where fiber has to end inside a control cabinet or distribution board rather than in a 19" rack.
The aluminium housing has an angled front panel, so patch cords leave at an angle and are not crushed by the cabinet door. Inside is a splice cassette that accepts both crimp and heat-shrink splice protectors, with a splice comb for 6 splices (SC) / 12 splices (LC). The cable enters through a U-shaped entry with a closed membrane for cables of 5–14 mm diameter.
Before you order: The distributor is supplied EMPTY: no couplers (adapters), no pigtails and no splice protectors are included. You need 6 × SC simplex or 6 × LC duplex couplers, matching pigtails and protectors for your fiber type.
What's in the Box
- 1 × DIGITUS DIN-rail splice distributor, angled (DN-96894)
- 1 × mounting bracket
- 1 × heat-shrink splice holder
- No couplers, pigtails or splice protectors
What It Means in Practice
- Width on the rail is 45 mm, height 177 mm and depth 161 mm — check the cabinet depth and door clearance.
- With LC duplex couplers you get the highest fiber count (12 fibers); with SC simplex couplers 6 fibers.
- Accepts crimp protectors (e.g. DIGITUS DN-CSP-015) and heat-shrink sleeves.
- The angled front reduces bending stress on patch cords in shallow cabinets.
What Will Not Work
- It does not work without couplers and pigtails — budget for them separately.
- Do not order it for SC duplex or LC quad couplers — that is the DN-96893.
- It is not a 19" rack product and will not mount on rack rails.
- No IP rating is published, so use it inside a closed cabinet.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which couplers do I need?
Standard SC simplex or LC duplex couplers with the matching fiber type (singlemode or multimode). Send us your fiber specification and we will put together the couplers and pigtails.
Can I mix SC and LC?
DIGITUS publishes the cut-outs as 6 × SC simplex or 6 × LC duplex; both use the same footprint, but check the clips of your couplers before mixing.
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
A DIN-rail splice box is the cleanest way to bring fiber into an industrial or building control cabinet. Remember it ships empty — the couplers, pigtails and protectors make up most of the job. Ask us for a complete set, and see our
switches with SFP ports for the active side.
✓ Buy it if you need to terminate up to 12 fibers on a DIN rail inside a control cabinet.
✕ Skip it if you are terminating fiber in a 19" rack — a rack-mount splice box is the better fit.
→ Also consider DIGITUS DN-96893 for 6 × SC duplex or 6 × LC quad (up to 24 fibers).
Send us your fiber type and connector choice and we will check couplers, pigtails and protectors for this distributor before you order.
