Product Overview

FDH 3000 Fiber Distribution Hub in a Pedestal

  • Right-sized to match up with phased fibre deployment in smaller or rural communities
  • Pedestals offer more flexibility for installation locations compared to metal cabinets
  • Field-friendly design, craft Interface is similar to existing cabinet style offerings
  • Reduced inventory by using the same splitter module as larger FDH designs

Unlike traditional outdoor hubs which are typically deployed for neighborhoods of 144 homes or higher, the Hub in a Pedestal is right sized for rural landscapes numbering in size from 12 to 96 homes. Additionally, this field- friendly unit is enclosed in a pedestal rather than in a metal cabinet and can be placed in the ground without pouring a concrete pad or installing a hand hole. This speeds the deployment of fibre to the home and reduces overall project costs. Modelled after CommScope‘s industry-leading FDH 3000, the Hub in a Pedestal incorporates many of the same patented design features widely recognized and accepted by technicians including plug-and-play (PNP) splitter modules, parking lot storage and a swing frame to name a few. This product offering features full size trays for splicing incoming feeder and outgoing distribution cables and the option of adding hardened drop connections directly from the pedestal, further supporting lower-cost business models. With an efficient routing and cable management system, the Hub in a Pedestal will meet the challenges of any low count outside plant network
