Overview

The Panduit FCE4 Fiber Enclosure (SKU: FCE4) is a robust solution designed for high-density fiber optic applications. This enclosure accommodates up to twelve Panduit QuickNet cassettes, as well as FAP (Fiber Adapter Panel) or FMP (Fiber Module Panel) adapter panels, offering significant flexibility in network configuration. With its compact dimensions of 6.62 inches high by 17 inches wide by 16.40 inches deep (168mm x 432mm x 417mm), the FCE4 is ideal for rack-mount installations where space is at a premium, such as in data centers, SANs, medical healthcare facilities, and central offices. The enclosure's design supports migration to higher speed networks, including 10G/40G/100G/200G/400G systems, by facilitating the use of modular cassettes. These cassettes can support various fiber types, including OS2, OM3, OM4, and OM5, and are available with MTP/MPO and LC connector interfaces. The FCE4 is compatible with MTP/MPO-LC pre-terminated cassettes, each capable of accommodating 24 fibers. The enclosure features an integrated front cable management tray, which enhances patch cord organization by separating cables for each cassette, simplifying maintenance and reducing the risk of disconnections. Constructed to meet stringent industry standards, the FCE4 features DIN standard rectangular frame holes compatible with BV-M6 fasteners or metric cage nut fasteners, and round frame holes that accept M5 self-tapping screws, allowing for multiple grounding points with M5 thread-forming screws. The standard finish is a durable polyester powder paint in RAL 7035 textured light gray, with custom colors available upon request. This enclosure is manufactured in the USA. Its UNSPSC code is 43223306. The FCE4 is a key component for building high-performing, high-density fiber optic networks that require quick and reliable installation.
