Description:
The NT0H43CBE6 is a 20‑port optical fiber patch panel used with Nortel Optical Metro 5100/5200 transport equipment. It provides a structured interface for fiber connections, allowing multiple optical fibers to be terminated, organized, and routed within an optical transport chassis or rack. This panel is specifically coded for 20 fiber ports, making it suitable for medium‑density fiber management in optical network systems.
This part is typically used to support connection and cross‑connect functions between optical line cards and external fiber runs in metropolitan optical transport platforms. The product engineering code NT0H43CB is defined in Nortel transport system ordering tables as the 20‑port patch panel variant.
