Wall-mounted Legrand Niloe Step fiber optic outlet 2x SC/APC double aluminum (model 863371)

Legrand Niloe Step fiber optic outlet 2x SC/APC double aluminum is a wall-mounted unit designed to provide a compact and reliable termination point for single-mode fiber lines. The outlet integrates two SC/APC ports in a slim aluminum finish that fits standard wall boxes and interior decors while offering a stable connection point for patch cords and optical network outlets in homes and small commercial environments.

Advantages

The outlet supports two SC/APC connectors for low-reflection single-mode terminations and enables straightforward connection and re-connection of fiber patch cords. Its wall-mounted form factor reduces cable clutter and protects fiber adapters from accidental contact. The aluminum finish offers a durable surface that resists wear and integrates with metal or neutral interiors. The unit is appropriate for terminating incoming fiber and distributing signals to local equipment without requiring a larger distribution panel.

Suitable for

• Residential FTTH termination and indoor fiber outlets
• Small office or retail optical network termination points
• Patch connections between wall outlet and ONT, switch, or media converter
• Closets or wall-mounted distribution points where two SC/APC ports are needed

Key specifications

• Connector type: two SC/APC adapters for single-mode fiber
• Mounting: wall-mounted compact outlet compatible with standard wall boxes
• Finish: aluminum surface for interior integration and durability
• Ports: dual-port configuration allowing two separate fiber terminations
• Application: indoor fiber termination and patching for single-mode networks

How to use

Install the outlet onto a compatible flush-mounted or surface-mounted wall box following local electrical and cabling regulations. Terminate the incoming single-mode fiber pigtails into the SC/APC adapters using appropriate fusion splicing or factory-terminated pigtails, taking care to maintain correct APC mating angles to minimize return loss. Secure the fiber and any slack inside the outlet housing to prevent strain on the connectors, then connect patch cords from the SC/APC ports to the optical network terminal, media converter, or other customer equipment.

Usage recommendations

Use single-mode SC/APC patch cords with matching APC connectors to preserve low back-reflection. Handle connectors and adapters with dust caps until final connection and clean fiber end faces with approved fiber cleaning tools before mating. Avoid tight bends and mechanical stress on fibers entering the outlet and follow standard fiber handling and safety procedures.
