SlimConnect 1U range
Permanently mounted SlimConnect systems with up to 96 fibers in just 44.45 mm height – maximum port density for space-critical applications in data centers, telecommunications and campus networks
SlimConnect 1U: Permanently mounted high performance
The SlimConnect 1U fixed splice box defines new standards for professional fiber optic distribution. With up to 96 fibers in just one rack unit, it offers the highest port density on the market for space-critical applications in data centers, telecommunications infrastructure and enterprise networks.
- Up to 96 fibers in just 1U (44.45mm) – record port density
- Permanently mounted construction for lasting stability
- 47% more capacity than conventional 1U solutions
- Front-access design for maintenance-friendly installation
- LC, SC, E2000 and MPO/MTP connector variants available
- Pull-out cassettes with precise fiber guidance
- 19″ rack-compatible with standard fasteners
- Suitable for G.657.A1/A2 bend-optimized fibres
Maximum efficiency: The permanently installed SlimConnect significantly reduces the rack footprint. A telecommunications provider with 10,000 fibers requires only 55 rack units instead of 105 with conventional 48-port systems – this corresponds to more than a complete 42U cabinet saved, including all infrastructure costs.
Versatile applications: Ideal for data centers, colocation providers, 5G backhaul, campus networks, edge computing sites and hyper-converged infrastructures. The robust design ensures long-term reliability in critical environments.
