The helos Breakout Box LWL 24 LC MM 1U is a rack-mountable fiber optic breakout box that fits a 1U, 19" equipment rack and supports up to 24 multimode LC connections. It is designed to provide organized cable routing and clearly defined connection points for patching, testing and distribution in data centers, telecom closets and network racks. The panel reduces cable clutter and helps maintain consistent fiber management within limited rack space.

Advantages

The unit consolidates up to 24 LC multimode terminations into a single 1U footprint, enabling dense deployment without additional rack depth. Its rack-mountable design ensures stable installation and straightforward access for technicians. The breakout box facilitates orderly patching and testing by providing secure connection points and predictable cable pathways, which can reduce handling errors and simplify maintenance tasks.
