Fiber Optic Breakout Box helos LWL 252009 — Rack-mount 1U, 12× LC MM

helos LWL 252009 is a 1U rack-mount fiber optic breakout box with 12 LC multimode (MM) ports designed for neat termination and uncomplicated patching in server racks and network cabinets. The compact panel provides organized distribution and easy access to LC MM connections, enabling tidy cable routing and simplified service operations in data centers, server rooms and network closets.

Advantages

The panel fits a standard 19-inch rack in a single U of space, offering a space-efficient footprint for multimode fiber distribution. Its 12 LC MM ports support high-density connections while reducing front-panel clutter and lowering the risk of accidental disconnections. The metal housing provides mechanical protection for fiber terminations and maintains a consistent arrangement of connectors for straightforward identification and access during reconfiguration or maintenance.

Suitable for

• Data center fiber patching and distribution
• Server room backbone termination
• Network closets and telecommunications cabinets
• Laboratory and test bench multimode fiber setups

• Connector type: 12 × LC duplex multimode ports
• Fiber type supported: Multimode (MM)
• Material: Metal housing for mechanical protection and EMI stability
• Front access: Front-facing connector layout for easy patching and management
• Mounting: Rack-mount brackets included or prepared for standard installation

How to use

Install the breakout box into a standard 19-inch rack taking one U of vertical space. Route incoming multimode fiber cables to the rear of the unit and terminate or connect them as required to the LC ports. Use appropriate fiber patch cords on the front panel to connect equipment or cross-connect to other patch panels. Secure cables with strain relief and follow standard fiber handling practices to avoid bend radius violations and connector contamination.

Recommendations

Keep dust caps on unused LC ports, use labeled patch cords for clear identification, and perform cleaning of connector endfaces before mating. Ensure installation preserves minimum bend radius for multimode fiber and avoid excessive tension on cable assemblies to maintain optimal optical performance.
