Description

Application

Either in the Central Office or at a node of the FTTH network, the COSH module, installed in its frame (see OpteaStar or PRI or PME cabinets), allows a front patching of spliced fibres from the incoming cable.

The module with combined splicing-patching function is used to increase the connection density at the level of the distribution frame, by grouping the two functions. The proximity of the two functions also allows the length of the pigtails to be reduced.

Product usage

Description:

The combining module includes a space reserved for splicing of the incoming tubed fibres. Splicing can be performed with conventional cassettes or a FiberArt TM module. The patching function is in the form of a front panel capable of taking 72 connectors (ETSI), 96 connectors (19”), or 144 connectors (23”). Micro connectors are used to double the capacity (ETSI). The module is compatible with the various formats on the market, namely 19 '', ETSI and 23".

The module is fitted with guide accessories - tubes , pigtails and cords - in order to guarantee conformity with the radii of curvature.

The module is composed of:

  • A fixed chassis attached to the rack,
  • A support for mounting of the FiberArt TM splicing module or of conventional splicing cassettes,
  • A front patching panel with a maximum capacity of 144 connectors,
  • A front output cord system,
  • A frontal protection arrangement for the cords, with horizontal pivoting
  • A device for lateral management of the optical jumper harnesses, on option.
     
 

 

The module is of the swivelling type, in order to optimise accessibility while also allowing minimum movement of the optical cords when opening the module.

This is used to guarantee a reduced
transient loss effect.
