Black Box High-Density Multimode 12-LC Fiber Adapter Panel (Beige)

Overview

The Black Box JPM467B-R2 is a high-density fiber adapter panel designed to accommodate twelve LC duplex multimode connections within a compact footprint. It provides a reliable and efficient way to manage up to twenty-four multimode fibers in a single panel, making it ideal for environments where space is limited but connectivity demands are high. Its ceramic alignment sleeves ensure precise fiber core alignment, minimizing insertion loss and maintaining stable network performance as traffic increases.

This panel fits seamlessly into Black Box fiber enclosures and most industry-standard cabinets or patch panels, allowing for easy installation and flexible port management. Its compact size of 5.12 by 1.1 by 1.4 inches makes it well suited for dense data center racks, telecommunications closets, branch offices, or laboratory setups where conserving space is critical.
