DIN rail fiber optic splice distributor DIGITUS DN-96894 — angled, 6 SC SX / LC DX, aluminium, grey

The DIN rail fiber optic splice distributor DIGITUS DN-96894 is an angled enclosure for organizing and protecting spliced fibres in cabinets and industrial installations. The aluminium housing in grey accepts cables from 5 mm diameter and supports either 6 SC SX or LC DX connections. With compact dimensions and a form factor designed for TS35 DIN rail mounting, this distributor provides structured termination and distribution of fibre optic connections for FTTH, industrial networks and building infrastructure.

Advantages

The angled front panel improves accessibility in confined cabinet spaces and helps maintain correct fibre bend radius. Aluminium construction gives a durable, corrosion-resistant enclosure while the DIN clip fastening enables space-saving installation on standard DIN rails without additional accessories. Integrated U-shaped cable entries with closed membranes and an internal splice cassette reduce mechanical stress on fibres and provide neat, safe routing of optical cables. The distributor supports both SC SX and LC DX adapter arrangements and accepts common splice types including crimp and heat-shrink tubing.

Suitable for

• FTTH termination and distribution in residential and multi-dwelling installations
• Industrial control cabinets and automation systems requiring reliable fibre management
• Telecom and data distribution cabinets with limited depth where angled access is beneficial
• Building infrastructure installations and backbone distribution points

Key specifications

• Housing material: aluminium, grey finish
• Mounting: TS35 DIN rail (DIN clip fastening)
• Adapter compatibility: 6 × SC SX or LC DX duplex equivalent
• Splice cassette: supports crimp splices and heat-shrink tubing
• Splice capacity: SC layout 6 positions / LC layout 12 positions (duplex)
• Cable diameter range accepted: from 5 mm up to 14 mm
• Cable entry: U-shaped entry with closed membrane for sealed routing
• Dimensions (approx.): 180 × 170 × 440 mm (overall installation footprint guidance)

How to use

Mount the distributor on a TS35 DIN rail using the integrated DIN clip and secure the enclosure in the desired position. Route optical cables through the U-shaped cable entry and remove the membrane where required to pass cables; secure incoming cables as appropriate to maintain strain relief. Prepare and splice fibres according to accepted practice, place completed splices into the splice cassette suitable for crimp or heat-shrink protection, and arrange pigtails to the SC or LC adapters. Close the angled front access to protect splices and adapters while keeping sufficient bend radius for all fibres.

Usage recommendations

For reliable long-term performance, maintain the specified minimum bend radius for fibres, secure cables to reduce mechanical stress, and use approved splice protectors. Install the unit on a properly grounded cabinet and perform connector inspection and cleaning before finalizing connections.
