HDX Adaptor Plates & CassettesHDX Adaptor Plates and Cassettes work with UHDX Enclosures and Panels, and the HDX Fibre Distribution Frame. They are ideal for data centres or telecommunication rooms with space limitations and growth needs, and can speed deployment and MACs through easy one-hand installation and removal. The HDX platform is recommended for 10G or higher applications.

DATA CENTRE APPLICATIONS | HDX

The HDX Frame is a main cross-connect or interconnect patching frame for all fibre channels in the data centre. One frame consolidates patching into an incredibly small footprint, with capacity for up to 3,168 LC fibres, or 7,776 fibres using 12-fibre MTP connections.

The HDX Frame accomplishes such high density through its unique patch deck design. One frame holds 22 decks, each configured with HDX fibre cassettes and adaptor plates, or splice trays. And since it occupies only one data centre floor tile, it's easier than ever to access space beneath a raised floor.

For more information, please visit Leviton.com/HDXFrame.
