Overview

The Panduit FlexCore Optical Distribution Frame (SKU: FDFUE4GY) is a 4RU universal enclosure designed for high-density fiber management in data centers, SANs, central offices, and healthcare networks. This enclosure supports 12 trays and accommodates up to 288 fibers, enabling scalable deployment for 10G/40G/100G/200G/400G system migrations. Each tray can be configured with modular cassettes (e.g., LC Quad, MTP/MPO-LC) supporting 6, 12, or 24 fiber plates, or splice trays for fusion splicing. The universal design ensures compatibility with OS2, OM3, OM4, and OM5 fiber types, as well as ST, Duplex SC, LC, and MTP connectors. The gray enclosure features front cable management trays for organized patch cord routing, and a spring cotter mechanism for tool-free tray insertion and locking. Multiple cable entry points on the top and bottom allow for flexible cabling configurations, while a lockable steel door protects internal premise wiring. This frame is ideal for transition boxes where outdoor fiber (up to 72 cores) must be spliced to indoor fiber types. The enclosure includes a global hardware kit and supports side stacking to increase capacity as network requirements change.
