optimize cable management, speed deployment, and improve flexibility and manageability for lower installation costs.
technical information
QuickNet
™
SFQ Series MTP* Fiber Optic Cassettes comply with all multimode and
singlemode channel performance requirements. Fiber optic cassettes support network
data rates of 10 Gb/s for link lengths up to 300 meters using laser optimized OM3 fiber
and link lengths up to 550 meters using OM4 fiber. Optimized cassettes provide
insertion loss of 0.5dB max., and standard cassettes provide 0.75dB max. to meet
IEEE 802.3ae max. channel loss specification. QuickNet

SFQ Series MTP* Fiber
Optic Cassettes employ high performance MTP* connectors on the rear of
the units routed to 6 or 4 duplex LC colors shall follow TIA/EIA-568-C.3 suggested
color identification scheme. They interconnect with high-density SFF MTP*
interconnect cable assemblies. High-density cassette patch panels hold up to 8
cassettes, allowing up to 96 fiber connections to be deployed in one rack unit (1 RU).
