ADC Introduces High-Density Copper and Fiber Distribution Frames

ADC introduced two new high-density distribution frames for connecting, protecting, and managing copper and fiber cabling inside central offices. ADC said its FlexDSX Super High-Density Bay allows carriers to conserve up to 30% more floor space than traditional digital signal cross-connect bays. The bay accommodates 84 FlexDSX jacks per panel, up to 18 panels per bay, for a total of 1512 DS1 terminations in a 7-foot rack. Modular jack cards feature dual-monitoring functionality to simplify and speed testing procedures. ADC's new NG3 High-Density Fiber Distribution Frame is designed and tested to Telcordia GR-449-CORE, Issue 2 requirements including OC-192 and OC-768 bit-error rate testing. The frame features hinged 72-position fiber termination panels and can accommodate up to 1440 fiber terminations per frame using standard SC connectors.
