Patch panel DELOCK 6‑port fiber optic for SC Duplex or LC Quad, grey metal, DIN rail mounting

DELOCK 6‑port fiber optic patch panel provides a compact, metal housing for terminating and organizing up to six fiber connections in industrial and rack-mounted environments. The front-access design supports SC Duplex or LC Quad adapters, enabling flexible connector configurations. Built for DIN rail mounting, the grey metal enclosure delivers secure fixation and straightforward integration into cabinet or control-panel installations. The unit is delivered as a single module suitable for use where space-efficient, protected fiber distribution is required.

Advantages

The metal construction ensures mechanical protection and electromagnetic stability while maintaining a compact footprint. Front-access ports simplify connection and maintenance without the need to remove the panel from the DIN rail. Support for both SC Duplex and LC Quad adapter formats allows compatibility with common fiber connector types. The design reduces cable clutter and helps maintain orderly routing and labeling of fiber runs.

Suitable for

• Industrial automation cabinets and control panels
• Telecommunications and data distribution racks with DIN rail infrastructure
• Fiber patching points in machine rooms or network closets with limited space
• Environments requiring protected, front-access fiber termination

Key specifications

• Number of ports: 6 fiber ports
• Supported adapter types: SC Duplex or LC Quad
• Material: grey metal enclosure
• Mounting: DIN rail compatible mounting design
• Front access: all ports accessible from the panel front
• Application: indoor use in cabinets, racks, or control panels

How to use

Mount the patch panel on a suitable DIN rail inside the cabinet or rack and secure it according to the rail system specifications. Install SC Duplex or LC Quad adapters into the front panel openings as required, then route fiber pigtails or patch cords to the rear or side cable entries while avoiding tight bends. Connect fibers to the installed adapters, verify correct labeling and polarity, and perform optical checks such as continuity or attenuation tests to confirm proper termination and signal integrity.

Usage recommendations

For reliable long-term operation, use appropriate strain relief and keep bend radii within the fiber manufacturer's specified limits. Label each connection at the front panel for easy identification and perform routine inspection and cleaning of connectors to maintain low insertion loss.
