Description

Application

Interconnection node between the external network and the internal distribution network. OPTEASTAR provides a solution for each of the functions to which it is devoted (splicing, patching, combined function, etc.).

The special feature of the Opteastar relies on an originale internal architecture that enables a front and permanent management of cables and fibres.

Indeed, swivelling modules, installed onto the frame, bring a full access to the back of the frame where the cables are fixed (top and bottom). The fibres from the cables are then routed towards the modules.

 

When the modules are closed, the fiber management in done frontly, using the side area to coil overlength of pigtails or patchcords.

A full project range:
Its design enables any type of cabling configuration:

  • Inter-frame patching,
  • Interconnection,
  • Cross-connection,

Its modules are compatible with various formats on the market, e.g 19, ETSI or 23”. Depending on the application, the range comes in several heights (from 1000 to 2000mm), in depths of 300 or 600 mm, and in widths from 600 mm to 900mm.

Description:

OPTEASTAR - a concept applicable to each point of the network.

The OPTEASTAR concept is applicable to the various inter-connection nodes of the network. Many kinds of frames are available (please contact our commercial services). As a complete architecture at the level of the exchanges, its modules can also adapt themselves to the different enclosures such as the street cabinet, the wall-mounted box, etc.

Thus each shelf can be configured and ordered as an element of the OPTEASTAR distribution rack architecture.

These are elementary modules (see reference system).

 

Or indeed each shelf can be configured and controlled as a complete module capable of being fitted in racks, cabinets or wall-mounted boxes.

These are the sub-rack modules (see reference system).

OPTEASTAR - a concept in which connectors can be pre-fitted.

Because of Nexans workshops specialising in cabling, pre-fitting of connectors and optical measurements, each of the modules or the complete frame (600 mm or 900 mm large) can be delivered fully cabled and tested.
