Rack base DeLOCK 43348

The DeLOCK 43348 rack base is a 1U splice box designed for mounting in a 19" rack. Constructed from durable metal with a black finish, it measures 482.6 mm in width, 338.5 mm in depth and 43.7 mm in height, providing stable support and tidy organisation for fibre connections. The cassette is extendable, allowing access to both sides of the couplers without removing the cover. A range of compatible front panels with pre-assembled fibre optic couplers (from SC Simplex to LC Quad) is available separately as accessory.

Advantages

The extendable cassette enables safe and convenient work on couplers from either side while the cover remains in place. Its 1U form factor and standard 482.6 mm width make it compatible with common 19" racks. Metal construction ensures durability and stable mounting; the compact 338.5 mm depth is suitable for installations with limited rack depth.

Suitable for

• Rack-mounted fibre splice and patch installations
• Telecommunications and data centre fibre management
• Small office and enterprise network racks requiring 1U fibre termination
• Environments where front panels with different fibre couplers are used (SC, LC)

Recommendations

Handle fibre cables and connectors with care to avoid damaging fibres. Use proper ESD precautions and follow established fibre handling and splicing procedures. Choose front panels with coupler types that match your fibre connectors (SC Simplex, LC Quad, etc.).
