FAQ

Question?

What is the difference between Multimode (MM) and Singlemode (SM) fiber, and is this unit compatible with both?

This patch panel is specified for Multimode (MM) fiber, which has a larger core diameter and is typically used for shorter-distance communication (e.g., within a building or campus). It is not designed for Singlemode (SM) fiber, which is used for long-haul transmission. Using the wrong fiber type will result in significant signal loss.

What does "ST/ST Duplex" mean in this context?

ST refers to the connector type, which features a bayonet-style locking mechanism. Duplex means that each of the three connection points supports a pair of fibers, allowing for two-way (send and receive) communication.

Is any special tool required for mounting this patch panel onto a DIN rail?

No special tools are required. The panel is equipped with a standard clip on the back that allows it to be snapped directly onto a 35mm DIN rail and removed with a simple flathead screwdriver for leverage if needed.
