Outdoor Fiber Distribution Terminal 48 (oFDT-48)
The ADC Outdoor Fiber Distribution Terminal 48F (oFDT-48) is designed to terminate, splice
and interconnect fiber optic cables in an outdoor environment. This terminal may be adapted to
Fiber-to-The-Premise (FTTP) Multiple Dwelling Unit (MDU) applications by mounting the enclosure
to the exterior surface of a dwelling and connecting between the distribution cable and drops
routed to individual living units. The oFDT-48 is typically divided into two side-by-side sections
with distribution cable routed into one side and drop cable routed into the other side. The cables
meet at a central connector field that includes termination for the distribution cable and parking
for the drop cables. Each side of the cabinet may be configured with splice trays for splicing
the cable to connector pigtails. The oFDT-48 may be pre-terminated on the distribution side
with outside plant cable stubs so that the unit is quickly connected to the plant. The oFDT-48 may
be pre-wired with pigtails on the drop side so that individual drops routed into the unit can be
spliced to the connectorized pigtails.
The unit accommodates a variety of OSP cable types via sealed grommet entry. Cables are secured
with standard grip clamps to provide required pull out strength. The enclosure provides grounding
for metallic members and for the cabinet.

Outdoor Fiber Distribution Terminal 48 (oFDT-48)
Sizes
The oFDT-48 product accommodates up to 48 living units. Distribution cable fibers are terminated
on standard SC/APC adapters that are easily accessible for service connection and maintenance. Drop
pigtails are initially terminated on parking adapters adjacent to the distribution termination adapters and
staged at the parking positions until the living units request service. Moving the drop pigtails from the
parking position to the assigned distribution fiber easily makes service connections.
Mounting Applications
All units are configurable for a variety of mounting arrangements including wall, pole and pedestal
mounting. Each unit is provided nominally with a wall mount bracket. Optional pole-mount brackets
and pedestals may be ordered separately.
Special Features
These heavy gauge aluminum enclosures provide the necessary protection against rain, wind, dust,
rodents and other environmental contaminants while remaining lightweight for easy installation.
The aluminum construction with heavy powder coat finish also provides for corrosion resistance.
