a p p l i c a t i o n
Allows system designers to tailor configuration, reach and breakout construction to application requirements; to minimize waste,
optimize cable management, speed deployment, and improve flexibility and manageability for lower installation costs.

HD Flex™ Fiber Optic Cassettes offer a wide array of deployment options
to support both Ethernet and Fibre Channel networks. Cassette types are
available with 1 MPO to 6 duplex LC connectors, (6-port) 1 MPO to 12
duplex LC connectors (12-port), 1 MPO to 4 duplex LC connectors for
breaking out parallel optics applications (40G into four 10G channels),
and 6-port duplex LC cassettes for splice terminations. Also 6-port MPO
and duplex LC fiber adapter panels (FAP) are available. All LC
connectors contain integral shutters to help prevent contamination.
