With Clearfield’s Clearview Cassette at its heart, the FieldSmart FSC 1152-Port Cabinet changes the rules of fiber management. Core to this design is the fact that fiber is protected in sub-units of 12 fibers. Jacketed cable storage is eliminated because the 900um tight buffers have shed the outer riser rated jacket in favor of the cassette that protects it not only from human accidental damage, but also provides full bend radius protection throughout. The FieldSmart FSC 1152-Port Cabinet accommodates all fiber management needs plus all the required slack storage for a 1,152 home-served “Patch & Splice” or “Patch Only” configuration in just 19.5 feet of cabinet space.
High Density Environments Demand a High Density Solution
As service providers gain experience with FTTx builds, many are recognizing the need for long-term planning in their network designs.
“The scalable, symmetrical design of the FieldSmart platform is key to delivering a highly configurable platform to meet all of our customers’ requirements –whether their serving area is 500 homes or 500,000,” said Johnny Hill, chief operating officer for Clearfield.
