ODB is the abbreviation of Optical Distribution Box. Generally, the distribution box is used for the connection between fiber and patch of the optical communication device. Through the adapter in the distribution box, the optical patch is used to draw light signal forth and then its function is realized. The distribution box adapts to not only the protective connection of fiber and distribution pigtail but the fiber end installation of the fiber end. Next, we will briefly introduce types and features of the optical distribution box.
1. Product Types
The optical distribution box is divided into rack-mounted type and wall-mounted type according to the outline structure, into port 4, port 6, port 8 and port 12 according to the number of port. Here we Feisu.com will make a detailed introduction to you about some popular high-density ODBs.
