More fiber capacity when and where you need it
The ever-growing need for bandwidth inevitably leads to more fiber in your network—in both the central office and the outside plant. Flexible network elements allow you to keep up with the growth, adding capacity whenever and wherever it is required.
CommScope’s fiber distribution hubs (FDH) are a robust, technician-friendly and cost-effective solution for connecting feeder and distribution cables in FTTx and FTTH centralized networks. Whether the network is point-to-point fiber, ring, or point-to-multipoint (with optical splitters), the FDH can handle the connectivity with ease and economy.
The FDH 3000 series, with more than 35 awarded and pending patents, is the industry’s leader in innovation. Whether you are supporting 12 households or 1152, the FDH 3000 portfolio provides a solution that meets your needs both today and in the future.
For space-limited applications, the newly enhanced mini-FDH 3000 delivers a higher number of connections with the versatility of pre-terminated breakout cables and fast installation in both indoor and outdoor environments.
Unlike traditional cabinets, the sealed FDH 4000 closure was specifically designed to address urban fiber deployment challenges. Housed in a perfectly sealed, environmentally robust enclosure, the FDH 4000 can be installed below ground, strand, or via pole mount offering a great solution to today’s increasing installation challenges.
The new FDH 5000 cabinet incorporates CommScope’s most advanced inside and outside plant technology. Utilizing LC CMOD chassis plug-and-play splitters and cassettes, this product facilitates fast and easy installs in a light and compact form factor. By maximizing fiber density, even an 864f cabinet can be pole-mounted providing previously unheard of network architecture deployments.
At CommScope, we’re ready to partner with you to help optimize your total cost of ownership. In close collaboration with our long-standing local partners and the CommScope Professional Services Group, we provide customers the opportunity to choose from a spectrum of turnkey solutions that best fits their rollout needs. Whatever your application needs, you can rest assured that CommScope network experts, with know-how in both passives and actives, can design effective solutions with proven future network functionality.
