Frame
ADC’s next generation frame (NGF) product line has fiber frames
designed to fit a variety of network applications. Each frame option is
designed with an emphasis on superior cable management and ease
of use, including features such as ample trough space for cable and
jumpers, easy access to connectors and storage for jumpers. The frame
sections are shipped from the factory fully equipped with all cable
management hardware including integrated jumper slack storage.
Fiber Termination Block (FTB)
ADC’s FTB is available with industry-standard adapters in block configurations of 72-, 96- and 144-
positions. Also, a 192-position FTB is available using LC adapters. FTBs utilize sliding adapter packs
to gain easy access to both the front and rear terminations. To accommodate varying network
requirements and speed installation, FTBs can be ordered with adapters only or preterminated with
either intrafacility cable (IFC) or outside plant (OSP) cables.
Fiber Combination Block (FCB)
Our FCB provides termination and on-frame splicing capabilities. This configuration occupies two
mounting positions on the frame section. They are available with industry-standard adapters in
block configurations of 72-, 96- and 144-positions. An FCB with 192-positions is also available
using LC adapters.
Value-Added Module Block (VAM)
Adding signal management and enhancement functions, such as splitters, couplers and wavelength
division multiplexers, optimizes the value of your fiber network, by providing nonintrusive access to
the optical signal for monitoring and testing signal integrity. There is a block configuration available to
accommodate Micro Value-Added Modules (MicroVAMs) for applications requiring splitters or WDMs.
Fiber Optic Terminal Storage Panel
ADC’s fiber optic terminal storage panel is used as a storage apparatus for up to 16 feet of equipment
(FOT) jumpers at the fiber frame lineup. This panel can be installed between fiber frames and at the
end of a lineup.
