Built for Performance and Precision
The Patchbox One fiber optic cassette is engineered for professional data centres and network installations where performance and organization are critical. The OS2 single-mode fiber provides superior signal quality over long distances, while Corning ClearCurve technology allows for tighter bends without signal loss, making cable routing easier and more flexible than traditional fiber systems.
Retractable Design for Maximum Organization
Say goodbye to cable mess and wasted rack space. The patented retractable mechanism automatically stores unused cable length inside the cassette, ensuring your rack stays neat and accessible. Simply pull the cable to your desired length, and the cassette holds it securely. When you need to reconfigure, the cable retracts smoothly back into the housing.
Universal Compatibility
The Patchbox One 46RU cassette is backward compatible with Patchbox Plus+ and 365 frames, giving you flexibility to upgrade or expand your system. The cassette features LC-LC duplex connectors (LC-SC also available) and works seamlessly with standard fiber optic patch panels and network equipment.
