1. General
In optical distribution frames (ODFs) optical fibre cables are terminated and connected to other cables and
equipment. The number of cables coming to and leaving from an ODF may be very high depending on the
type and purpose of the ODF. Therefore it is very important that the ODF including all cable installations has
been designed, planned and installed with appropriate skill and knowledge.
NC-1000 fibre optic cross-connection system is an ODF that is designed according to the most critical
requirements to reach a solution with easy installation, good functionality and high reliability. All important
aspects are taken into account regarding cable assembly, fibre connections as well as addition of new
cables and modifications. Modular and clear design, usage of pre-assembled patch panels and smart fibre
management provide easy installation, changes, expansions and other maintenance practices during the
entire lifetime of the system.
