Fiber Management System
4x24-Inch System
The Industry’s Most Comprehensive Fiber Management System expands to 24-inches.
In response to customer requests, ADC continues to innovate and improve the FiberGuide
®
fiber management system, adding greater capacity and flexibility to the network, and
driving down installation time to ensure a smooth deployment. Fiber densities continue to
increase in today’s networks, creating demand for increased cable management capacity and
protection. ADC’s 4x24-inch FiberGuide is designed to meet this need. ADC is the first and
only manufacturer to deliver this unique solution.
FiberGuide is a fiber management system used to protect and route fiber optic patch
cords, multifiber cable assemblies and intrafacility fiber cable (IFC) to and from fiber splice
enclosures, fiber distribution frames and fiber optic terminal devices. FiberGuide ensures a
two-inch minimum bend radius is maintained throughout the system.
The 4x24-inch system is the standard and ultimate raceway solution to securely route and
protect patch cords over high-density optical distribution frames including ADC’s Next
Generation Frame (NGF) and Next Generation 3 Frame (NG3
®
). Designed for maximum
capacity, this robust system provides the same support and flexibility as the traditional
4x12-inch system while doubling capacity. The 4x24-inch FiberGuide system is a complete
set of products designed and manufactured to ensure total off-frame protection and
ease of use. Basic components include horizontal straight sections, horizontal and vertical
elbows, downspouts, junctions, Express Exits
™
and numerous support hardware fittings and
application. Variable support bracket kits provide
the flexibility needed to accommodate various
mounting requirements.
Fiber Protection
ADC’s broadband expertise translates into
maximum protection for your network. Two-inch
minimum bend radius is maintained throughout
the system regardless of the raceway size.
Strength and Durability
100% raceway reliability — stands up to any
challenge.
