distribution shelf provides for connection of non-metallic Outside Plant (OSP) cable or Lightguide Building Cable
(LGBC) to 24 iPatch LC duplex fiber ports either by direct termination or splicing. Designed for use in an iPatch
system, this shelf is one unit high and can be mounted in a standard 19-inch rack with a universal hole pattern.
Both a sliding version and a fixed version are available.

running firmware version 8.1 or later, and the imVision
