DIGITUS Professional Fibre-Optic Splice Box 1U 19" Sliding, 24x LC Duplex (48 Fibres) OM4 Multimode, Light Grey

The DIGITUS Professional DN-96332-4 is a 19-inch 1U sliding fibre splice box equipped with 24 LC duplex couplers and 48 coloured OM4 pigtails, built for installers terminating multimode trunk cables in a network rack.

Everything on the patch side is already done at the factory: the couplers are fitted in the front panel and the pigtails are exposed and laid into the splice cassette, so on site you only strip the incoming cable, fusion-splice each fibre to its pigtail and close the drawer. The steel drawer slides out to the front, which gives you room to work and lets you re-enter the cassette later without removing the box from the rack. Typical uses are building-to-building and floor-to-floor multimode backbones in offices, schools and small data rooms, where a 48-fibre OM4 trunk arrives in the main rack and has to be broken out into LC ports that the switches can patch to. Because the couplers, pigtails and cassette come from one manufacturer as a single equipped unit, you avoid the usual mismatch of cassette size, pigtail length and coupler type that slows down an installation.

• 1x 19" 1U sliding splice box, 24x LC/UPC duplex couplers fitted
• 48 coloured OM4 pigtails, prefabricated and laid into the splice cassette(s)
• Splice cassette(s) with cassette cover
• Strain relief for the incoming cable
• M20/M25 screw fitting

• 48 fibres means 24 duplex links: two fibres per port, one transmit and one receive. A 24-fibre trunk fills only half the panel.
• No connector polishing or field termination: the factory pigtails give you consistent connector quality, and your work is limited to the splices.
• The front-sliding drawer lets you service the cassette in a populated rack, as long as the cables behind it have enough slack to move with it.
• At 240 mm deep it suits shallow wall cabinets as well as full-depth server racks; allow extra space behind for the cable entry and bend radius.
• Front patching uses standard LC duplex patch cords in OM4 (or OM3) to your switch SFP+ or SFP28 multimode transceivers.
• Label each port pair against the trunk fibre colours as you splice. The coloured pigtails make it easy to keep transmit and receive in the right order, and a correct record now saves hours when a link fails later.
• One box serves one trunk cleanly. If you expect to grow beyond 48 fibres, leave the rack unit above or below free for a second box rather than overfilling the cassette.

• Single-mode (OS2) trunks: splicing single-mode cable to these OM4 pigtails gives a broken link. Order DN-96332/9 instead.
• APC (green, angled) connectors: these couplers are LC/UPC. Do not mix APC patch cords into UPC ports.
• SC patch cords: the front panel is LC duplex only.
• Splicing without a fusion splicer: the box is a termination point, not a connector kit. Splicing tools and the trunk cable are not included.
• Rack mounting hardware: cage nuts and rack screws are not in the list of included parts.
