2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
2.1 General Description
The EPX Panel is a 19-inch rack- or cabinet-mount fiber optic patch panel intended for indoor use.
Frame adapter kits are available which enable the EPX panel to be mounted in a 23-inch or ETSI
equipment rack or cabinet. The panel is available in one, two, or four rack unit size (abbreviated as
1U, 2U, or 4U), on either fixed or sliding trays, per customer order. Recess mounting options for the
EPX panel are 3-inch recess and 5-inch recess.
Transitions from patch cords to cable are accomplished through the customer choice of connection
modules including adapter packs, MPO modules, or splice cassettes. In-panel splicing is possible
using Agile splice trays. The EPX bulkhead may be either LGX/1000 style with three modules per
rack unit, or G2 Style with four modules per rack unit.
