DIGITUS Fiber Optic Unibox — medium wall-mount splice box for up to 48 fibres
Wall mountUp to 48 fibresLockable steel · IP20Grey RAL 7035
The DIGITUS DN-96800M-2 Fiber Optic Unibox (medium) is a compact, lockable steel splice and distribution box for wall mounting that takes up to 48 fibres. It is meant for installers who need a tidy hand-over or splice point on a wall — a building entry, a floor distributor, a plant room or a small office without a 19-inch rack.
Cables enter and leave at the top and bottom through foam-rubber strips, there are integrated fixing points for cable ties, and the housing can hold up to four splice cassettes. The box ships empty on the front side: you choose the adapter plate (couplers) and splice cassettes to match your fibre type and connectors.
Before you order: The Unibox is delivered as a housing only. Adapter plates with couplers and splice cassettes are not included and must be ordered separately, in the version made for the medium Unibox.
What's in the Box
- 1x Fiber Optic Unibox, medium, grey RAL 7035
- 2x keys
- Mounting material: screws, dowels, washers, cable ties
What It Means in Practice
- Capacity is up to 48 fibres once fitted with the right adapter plate and up to 4 splice cassettes.
- It works for single-mode and multimode alike — the fibre type is decided by the couplers, pigtails and cassettes you fit.
- Lockable door: useful in shared plant rooms or stairwells where the fibre hand-over must not be touched.
- IP20 means indoor use only — for outdoor or damp locations use a sealed closure instead.
- Wall footprint is 280 × 320 mm at 54 mm depth, so it fits in tight spaces next to an ONT or small switch.
What Will Not Work
- It will not work out of the box — no adapter plate, couplers, pigtails or splice cassettes are included.
- Not for outdoor, wet or dusty locations (IP20).
- Not a 19-inch rack component; it cannot be mounted in a cabinet.
- Adapter plates for the small or large Unibox do not fit the medium model — order the plate made for DN-96800M-2.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which adapter plate do I need?
One made specifically for the medium Unibox, in the connector type you use (e.g. SC duplex or LC). Tell us your connector and fibre count and we will confirm the exact DIGITUS plate.
Can I use it for single-mode and multimode?
Yes. The housing is fibre-neutral; the couplers, pigtails and cassettes you fit decide the fibre type.
Is it suitable outdoors?
No. It is IP20 and intended for indoor installation.
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
For one cable entering a building and a few patch cords to an ONT or switch, a wall Unibox is cheaper and neater than a rack. Plan the full chain before ordering: adapter plate, cassettes, pigtails and patch cords. If you do have a cabinet, a 19-inch splice box from our
rack accessories range is the better fit.
✓ Buy it if you need a lockable indoor wall termination point for up to 48 fibres and will fit your own plates and cassettes.
✕ Skip it if you want a ready-to-splice box with couplers and pigtails pre-fitted, or the location is outdoors or damp.
→ Also consider DN-96800S-2 (small) or DN-96800L-2 (large) Unibox if you need less or more space; a pre-equipped 19" DIGITUS splice box for rack installations.
Tell us your fibre type, connector and fibre count and we will put together the plate, cassettes and pigtails before you order.
