The FieldSmart Fiber Management Wallbox provides 12 to 24 ports of fiber management access and protection. Designs for both the outside plant as well as business-class environments are on display at the FTTH Conference this week in Nashville.
With Clearfield's Clearview Cassette at its heart, the FieldSmart Wallbox provides service providers plug & play integration based on the configuration requirements of the application, say company representatives. The FieldSmart Wallbox supports all cable construction types for both patch-only and patch & splice deployments. All industry standard connector styles are available. The product is ready and available for shipment.
The FieldSmart Wallbox-OSP is designed for the harsh environmental conditions of the outside plant, with full Nema 4Icertification. For ease of integration, the FieldSmart Wallbox-OSP ships with a field-deployed "knock-out" that allows for conduit entry while maintaining Nema 4 performance.
The FieldSmart Wallbox-Riser is ideal for business-class and MDU environments. The FieldSmart Wallbox-Riser is ring-cut capable, supporting feeder and distribution cables through the riser. Both versions provide a swinging bulkhead that supports and protects sub-unit slack storage.
The FieldSmartIFiber Wallbox joins the entire FieldSmart fiber management platform, which is shipping and available from Clearfield.
