General Description
The LSX 288-position termination with splicing panel, shown in
Figure 1
, is a 23-inch rack-
mount, LGX-compatible panel that provides a splicing transition between one or more fiber
optic cables and a termination bulkhead for fiber optic patch cords.
This panel has a 15-inch depth permitting splice trays to be mounted in its back compartment.
The rear door swings down and locks in an open position to provide a horizontal working
surface for installing splices. The panel is designed to be mounted on an LSX 18-inch deep
high-density frame.
In a typical application, the panel serves as a splicing and distribution point to transition from
Outside Plant (OSP) or Intra Facility Cable (IFC) to inbuilding circuits connected to with patch
cords. The panel is shipped with pre-terminated, factory-installed pigtails, either of ribbon or
stranded construction. The panel may be used in either an interconnect or cross-connect
configuration, and in either single mode or multimode applications.
The panel is 11 inches (27.9 cm) high. Five panels fit on a standard 7 foot (2.1 m) frame.
