Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fiber optic distribution frame technology, and in particular to a protective fiber optic distribution frame. Background Technology

[0002] Fiber optic distribution frames (FPS) are essential equipment for managing and organizing fiber optic cable lines. They are widely used in communication systems in telecommunications and internet data centers, providing standardized solutions for the connection, distribution, and protection of fiber optic cables. FPS allow technicians to easily perform fiber optic cable access, patching, testing, and maintenance, effectively improving network management efficiency and security. FPS also offer excellent scalability, supporting the addition or adjustment of fiber optic lines as business grows, making them an indispensable foundation for building stable and efficient fiber optic communication networks.

[0003] In certain special environments, such as outdoors, industrial sites, or highly polluted areas, traditional fiber optic patch panels may not provide sufficient protection, leading to unstable or damaged fiber optic connections. For example, when used outdoors, without effective waterproofing and UV protection, prolonged exposure to sun and rain can accelerate the aging of internal components and reduce lifespan. In industrial sites, especially where there is a large amount of dust and chemicals, a lack of proper sealing design can allow dust and corrosive gases to intrude, interfering with fiber optic signal transmission and even causing short-circuit faults. Utility Model Content

A sliding plate 13 is provided on the rear side of the mounting frame 8, and the sliding plate 13 is slidably connected to the guide rails 14. A front plate 15 is provided on the front side of the mounting frame 8, and a coupler 81 is installed on the front plate 15, penetrating the front plate 15. A winding frame 11 is provided on the top of the mounting frame 8. The installation of the fixing frame 4 is facilitated by setting guide wheels 7 on the side plate 5; the drawer-type installation method between the mounting frame 8 and the fixing frame 4 makes the installation more convenient; the alignment of the mounting block 101 and the mounting plate 51 makes it possible to leave gaps between the side plate 5 and the left and right inner walls of the mounting box 1.

[0023] As a further improved technical solution, the present invention may also include the following additional technical features: the guide plate 2 is in multiple sets, and the multiple sets of guide plates 2 are spaced apart along the vertical direction of the mounting box 1; each set of guide plates 2 consists of two plates, and the two guide plates 2 are respectively installed on the left inner wall and the right inner wall of the mounting box 1.

[0024] As a further improved technical solution, the present invention may also include the following additional technical features: the guide wheels 7 are in two sets, and the two sets of guide wheels 7 are respectively disposed on the front and rear sides of the side plate 5; each set of guide wheels 7 consists of two, and the two guide wheels 7 are arranged vertically at intervals, and the guide plate 2 is sandwiched between the two guide wheels 7.

[0025] As a further improved technical solution, the present invention may also include the following additional technical features: the top and bottom of the guide plate 2 are provided with slots 21 that are adapted to the guide wheel 7.

[0026] As a further improved technical solution, this utility model may also include the following additional technical features: heat dissipation holes are provided on the side plate 5, and the heat dissipation holes are all connected to the mounting frame 8; a first dustproof net 6 is installed on the heat dissipation holes.

[0027] As a further improved technical solution, this utility model may also include the following additional technical features: the mounting frame 8 is provided with heat dissipation grooves, the heat dissipation grooves are arranged around the winding frame 11, and a second dustproof net 12 is installed on the heat dissipation grooves.

The heat dissipation holes and heat dissipation grooves can dissipate the generated heat in a timely manner, avoiding the impact of overheating on the performance of the equipment. The first dustproof net 6 and the second dustproof net 12 can prevent dust from entering the mounting frame 8.

[0028] like Figures 1-5 As shown, as a further improved technical solution, the present invention may also include the following additional technical features: it further includes a connecting sleeve 10, which is sleeved with the coupler 81.

[0029] As a further improved technical solution, this utility model may also include the following additional technical features: it also includes a protective shell 9, which is installed on the front plate 15 on the front side of the mounting frame 8.

The operation is simple and convenient for maintenance.

[0030] When using this fiber optic patch panel, first slide the mounting bracket 4 into the mounting box 1, allowing the guide wheel 7 to slide along the guide plate 2 into the slot 21, so that the mounting block 101 is tightly against the mounting plate 51. Then, fix the mounting block 101 to the mounting plate 51, thereby fixing the mounting bracket 4 to the left and right sides of the inner wall of the mounting box 1. Fix the fiber optic coupler 81 to the front side of the mounting frame 8, with the coupler 81 passing through the front side of the mounting frame 8. Install the RJ45 connector of the pigtail at the end of the coupler 81 near the winding frame 11, and then wind the pigtail... The fiber optic patch cord is wound on the winding frame 11. The sliding plate 13 is slid into the fixing frame 4 along the left and right guide rails 14, so that the mounting frame 8 is placed into the mounting box 1. The bottom of the mounting frame 8 is close to the pad 3. Then, the fiber optic patch cord is installed at the end of the coupler 81 away from the mounting frame 8.
