Clearview Blue Cassettes are a core building block of every product within the FieldSmart® ber management system.
Clearview Blue continues to incorporate exibility and scalability, now with enhanced conguration options including
tool-less installation, in-cassette buffer tube/ribbon slack storage, and front access-only designs. Reducing the overall
footprint of the ber management element reduces real estate costs and improves density without compromising critical
design elements of access, bend-radius protection, physical ber protection and route-path diversity.
Clearview Blue is a six component tool-less system made up of a top cover, expansion ring, splice tray, buffer tube/
ribbon slack storage, cable assembly tray and 12-pack adapter plate. Parts snap together to support desired application
requirements. All types of ber cable construction can be integrated within the cassette to support all patch and splice, patch
only, passive optical component hardware and plug-and-play scenarios.
Technical Specications
The Clearview Blue provides 12-24 ports of connectivity, scaling one
cassette at a time, for patch and splice (Cleareld’s in-cassette splicing
solution), patch only (stubbed) or plug-and-play (MPO/MTP) congurations
in any network environment. A dual high 24 ber Cassette offers additional
splicing capacity for SC port count requirements greater than 12, utilizing
the Clearview Expansion Ring to provide further exibility and scalability
within the same footprint by ganging cassettes together. Dual MPO/
MTP access is available on both sides of the cassette. Additional optical
components integrate into the cassette housing, supporting any input/
output combination of splitting, mux, and demux strategies desired.
