Review on πŸ”Œ CableRack 1U Rackmount Fiber Enclosure - 24-Core Black with 24 Singlemode LC Couplers by Michael Bustamante

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Small box ideal for residential installations

I decided to run fiber to remote parts of my house over copper wires to be a bit more future oriented. I found it terribly difficult to find a small box to fit the extra length of fiber, as well as LC-LC connectors, most of which were huge or required rack mounting. I needed something compact that I could mount on the side of a 6U server rack, as well as something small that I could hang on a wall in remote parts of my home. It was the smallest I could find and fits the bill perfectly. I suspect it would be a little cramped if you actually mounted all 12 connectors. I only have 2 LC-LC connectors in one in my server rack and it's starting to feel tight. It comes with lots of screws, zip ties and tags not shown in the photos. It also comes with heat shrinkable fiber splices if you're interested, but I didn't use those.

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Can't remember but there was something
