The advantages of fiber optic distribution boxes over fiber optic distribution frames are mainly reflected in design, function and applicable scenarios.
The fiber optic distribution box adopts a downward sliding tray design inside the box. This design allows the fiber optic distribution box to install not only adapter panels, but also high-density MPO/MTP distribution boxes, thereby ensuring long-term and reliable network transmission. In addition, fiber optic distribution boxes usually use SPCC packaging shells, combined with high-density splicing trays, with their own optical cable fixing plates, rod winding wheels and wiring service frames, which are basic protection facilities for optical cable fixing and management.
In contrast, although fiber optic distribution frames also have functions such as fiber termination, fusion and wiring, their design is relatively simple, usually 1U high 19-inch rack type, suitable for standard cabinets. The flexibility of fiber optic distribution frames is relatively low, and their main function is to connect vertical trunks and horizontal optical cables.
The design of the fiber optic distribution box enables flexible wiring and an expandable frame design, which is suitable for comprehensive cable management. The fiber optic distribution frame is relatively fixed and has poor scalability.
The fiber optic distribution box comes with a cable fixing plate, a rod winding wheel and a distribution business frame, which can better protect the optical fiber and cable.
The fiber optic distribution box is suitable for environments such as data centers and local area networks that require high-density management and protection; while the fiber optic distribution frame is more suitable for basic cable management in standard cabinets.
