Frequently Asked Questions
What materials are used to construct the cabinet, and what are its environmental protections?
The cabinet is made of premium stainless steel and SMC (sheet molding compound) with glass fiber reinforced unsaturated polyester. It is built to resist corrosion, aging, static, and fire, achieving an IP65 protection rating to withstand harsh outdoor weather.
What types of fiber adapters and configurations are supported?
The cabinet supports SC, FC, LC, and ST adapters. The capacity configurations range from 96 to 576 cores for SC/FC/ST ports, and 144 to 1152 cores for LC ports.
How does the cabinet maintain a stable internal temperature in extreme weather?
The cabinet features a double-walled structure with natural ventilation channels, combined with a special case design to minimize rapid internal temperature fluctuations.
Can the SMC box be wall-mounted?
Yes, the SMC box is designed for installation flexibility and can be mounted either directly onto an outdoor floor base or mounted on a wall.
What are the optical performance ratings of the connections?
The nominal operating wavelengths are 850nm, 1310nm, and 1550nm. It features a connector loss of <=0.5dB, insertion loss of <=0.2dB, and return loss values of >=45dB (PC), >=55dB (UPC), and >=65dB (APC).
How is maintenance performed on the cabinet?
All operational procedures—including splicing, wiring, routing, and testing—are executed entirely from the front of the cabinet to ensure convenient installation and easy routine maintenance.
