Fiber optic DIN-rail patch panel Alantec FOP-DIN-2C, 2-port compact module for DIN mounting

Alantec FOP-DIN-2C is a compact fiber optic patch panel designed for DIN-rail mounting. This 2-port module provides a neat and protected point for terminating and connecting optical fibers in industrial, telecom or building automation enclosures. The housing secures connectors and splices while keeping a small footprint suitable for control cabinets, distribution boxes and shallow racks. The design supports organized fiber routing and basic management of single-mode or multi-mode links in environments where space and accessibility on DIN rails are important.

Advantages

The module offers a compact footprint that reduces space requirements on DIN rails and simplifies integration into existing electrical or communication cabinets. It protects fiber connectors and terminations from mechanical stress and dust, and keeps connections accessible for maintenance. The device is suitable for both single-mode and multi-mode fibers and facilitates fast, repeatable connections with two clearly separated ports. Materials and construction are intended for reliable mechanical mounting and routine handling in industrial and telecom settings.

Suitable for

• Termination and routing of fiber links in control cabinets
• Fiber distribution in industrial automation and PLC enclosures
• Compact fiber patching in telecom distribution boxes and small racks
• Protected connector storage and access on DIN rails

Key specifications

• Module type: 2-port compact DIN-rail fiber patch panel
• Mounting: standard DIN-rail compatible housing
• Port count: 2 accessible fiber ports
• Fiber compatibility: supports single-mode and multi-mode optical fibers
• Function: connector protection, fiber routing and basic management
• Form factor: low-profile, space-saving design for enclosures

How to use

Mount the module onto a compatible DIN rail and secure it according to the cabinet’s installation practice. Route incoming and outgoing fiber cables to the module, taking care to respect bend radii and to secure loose fibers with appropriate ties or guides. Terminate connectors or splice fibers to the internal adapters or pigtails as applicable, then insert and secure connectors into the front ports. Close any protective covers and label ports if required for later identification. For maintenance, disconnect fibers carefully and replace or reseat connectors as needed.

Usage recommendations

Use this module in environments where compact DIN-rail mounting and basic connector protection are required. Maintain minimum bend radii for optical fibers, keep the module’s enclosure clean from dust during connector work, and follow standard fiber handling and safety procedures. Label connections to simplify future troubleshooting and avoid excessive mechanical stress on the mounted cables.
