Charles Fiber Distribution Point™ (CFDP) Interconnect Pedestals Charles Fiber Distribution Point (CFDP) Interconnect Pedestals provide pre-connectorized “interconnect panel” fiber drops to multiple broadband service customers at a fraction of the cost of Light Guide Cross-Connect (LGX) solutions. The CFDP Interconnect Pedestal is ideal for multi-tenant cell site, campus or strip mall environments where the customer requires high-capacity fiber bandwidth for wireless backhaul, private networks or data and video broadband services. With a built-in SC/APC or SC/UPC adapter bulkhead, Interconnect pedestals facilitate fast and easy provisioning of fiber services to the end customer’s fiber multiplexing equipment. Fiber drops can be turned up, moved or disconnected on an “as needed” basis, giving telecom service providers added flexibility in their efforts to provide broadband voice, data and video services to customers whose bandwidth requirements may change seasonally or due to major events. CFDP Pedestals offer two-stage environmental protection of fiber distribution points. This two-stage protection is accomplished by housing a weather-tight interior enclosure within the confines of a non-metallic buried distribution pedestal. Together, this “enclosure within an enclosure” combination is designed to exceed Telcordia GR-771-CORE specifications and provide an unbeatable line of defense against the elements, including floods, fire, dirt, debris, insects, and corrosion. 10” (left) and 6” (right) CFDP Interconnect Pedestals Product Features • Interior weather-tight enclosure separates distribution and drop side compartments and provides mechanical and environmental protection of splice trays and bulkhead adapters • Lift-off outer dome with self-locking mechanism ensures secure attachment to the base and creates a patented “Bell-Jar Effect” that provides outstanding flood protection Central Office Side of 10” Fiber Organizer Drop Side of 10” Fiber Organizer • Pedestal is constructed of non-metallic PVC to resist rust, corrosion, and impact. Internal equipment is protected from floods, fires, and wind-blown dust and debris • Central Office side of fiber organizer includes bulkhead adapters, splice tray basket with one splice tray, cable management guides, distribution cable entry grommets, ground wire posts and strength member clamps • Optional SC/APC or SC/UPC 900-micron, color coded fiber cable is available for Central Office side bulkhead splicing. • Drop side of fiber organizer features bulkhead adapters, cable management guides, drop cable entry grommets, ground wire posts and strength member clamps • Two-piece “split” base makes it easy for technicians to place the pedestal without having to “squeeze” in loop-through cable, preventing cable bend radius damage during installation • Expanded-capacity base easily accommodates
