Fiber Optic Patch Panel Stalflex TFDP-19-1U-12D-SC-G — 1U, 12 SC Duplex Ports, Rack-Mount

Stalflex TFDP-19-1U-12D-SC-G is a 1U, 19" rack-mount fiber optic patch panel with 12 SC duplex ports designed to organize and protect fiber terminations in telecom, data center and LAN backbone environments. The unit offers front-access SC duplex adapters for secure connector mating, integrated cable management space and provision for mounting splice trays or pigtails, enabling orderly distribution and easy maintenance of fiber connections.

Advantages

This 1U patch panel provides a compact, standardized mounting format for 19" racks while accommodating twelve SC duplex connections to simplify patching and port management. Front-facing adapters allow convenient access to connectors for patching and testing without opening the rack. The panel includes room for cable routing and securing pigtails or splice trays, reducing strain on fibers and protecting terminations from dust and mechanical damage.

Suitable for

• Telecommunications equipment rooms and ODF cabinets
• Data centre horizontal and vertical distribution panels
• LAN backbone and campus network aggregation points
• Optical fibre patching and cross-connect shelves
• Installation environments requiring organized front-access patching

Key specifications

• Mounting: 19" rack, 1U height
• Port type: SC duplex adapters, front-facing
• Number of ports: 12 SC duplex (24 fiber terminations)
• Material and finish: metal housing with protective front panel (painted/coated)
• Cable management: integrated routing space and fixing points for pigtails or splice trays
• Access: front-access adapter layout for easy patching and testing

How to use

Mount the patch panel into a standard 19" rack occupying one unit of vertical space. Secure incoming fibre pigtails or splices to the provided routing points or install a compatible splice tray in the allotted area. Terminate fibers into the SC duplex adapters from the front and use standard SC patch cords to connect equipment or cross-connect to other panels. Ensure bend radii are respected when routing fibers and fasten cables to prevent movement or strain on connectors.

Usage recommendations

When installing, follow local cabling standards and fibre handling best practices: clean connectors prior to mating, maintain minimum bend radii for singlemode or multimode fibres, and use proper strain relief. Label ports clearly at the front for simplified identification and record keeping. For dense installations consider using splice trays to protect splices and keep patching accessible from the front of the rack.
