5 Central Office Out of the Box A high-performance distribution central office is the basis for every FTTX strategy. Network operators who can rely fully on their hubs can be proactive and confident when conducting business on the market. An uncomplicated out-of-the-box solution is ideal for them. They should be able to set up big distributors effortlessly, expand them seamlessly and operate them trouble-free. And they can do just that thanks to perfectly coordinated modular systems and planning assistance from R&M. The ODF SCM (optical distribution frame with the single circuit management system) is the main component of the distribution system. It is configured in five minutes, set up with a flick of the wrist and fitted with pre-terminated modules. The ODF SCM then hits the starting line all set to go. The distribution system is suitable for P2P, P2MP and xwdm applications. All standard commercial FO cable types today can be connected trouble-free to the main distributor frame. Moreover, high packing densities involving more than 2,300 fibers can be easily accommodated & handled. The raceway system is like a racetrack for the fiber optic cables in the hub. It can be used to guide cables safely between distributors, active units, inputs and outputs. The components can be joined together with the greatest of ease, based on their modular design. The R&Mfoxs line has the appropriate components for every conceivable application. Splitters can be integrated per splice or simply per connector, no matter whether the single circuit management (SCM) system is employed with its handy modular and tray technology or tried-and-tested 9 units are used. For WAN, back-haul and backbone cabling, the range offers 9 Unirack inserts, among other options. In cases involving hybrid cabling, like: bonding, vectoring, G.Fast etc., network operators can turn to the copper connection technology from the VS range at R&M, moreover remote powering for the active devices is perfectly supported.
