AFL IFDF Infinity Fibre Distribution

AFL has released the Infinity Fibre Distribution Frame (IFDF), a high-density optical interconnect solution suitable for high-density fibre management in data centres, and co-location and telecommunication environments.

The product is a left- and right-sectioned mounting frame that is populated with modular swing-out subframes as required, allowing both inbound and outbound cables to be separated. Featuring an all front access to suit wall mounting, the product also contains a large capacity lower cable raceway for inter-rack patching. Top and bottom cable entry is suitable for both overhead and underfloor cabling.

Each section can accommodate 13 subframes, totalling 26 when both are fully populated. A range of modules is also available to suit fusion splicing, patching, passive device module patching and MTP patching. Individual modules allow access without adjacent circuit disruption. Based on a maximum module capacity of 24 fibres, the distribution frame can also present 3120 spliced terminations.
