It is available in PVC or PC+ABS and meets UL94-V0 flame-retardant requirements.

Key Features

• Modular raceway system – Compatible with straight sections, elbows, tees, and crosses for flexible layout design.

• UL94-V0 flame-retardant material – Available in PVC or PC+ABS to meet fire safety requirements in equipment rooms.

• Open-style access – Supports organized routing and layered management of fiber patch cords and pigtails.

• 50mm width, 100mm height – Provides a defined pathway for high-density fiber cabling above cabinets and between racks.

• 2000mm standard length – Reduces the number of joints and simplifies installation across long runs.

• Fiber routing capacity – Routing capacity is specified at 50%, 75%, and 100% fill rates. For normal installation, 50%–75% fill is recommended to allow for cable movement, maintenance, and future changes. The 100% figure represents a theoretical maximum only and is not recommended for standard deployment.

• ISO 9001 manufacturing – Produced under an ISO 9001 quality management system.
