Face Plate Industry Knowledge

What are the main functions of a Face Plate?

The face plates manufactured by Ningbo Betterbell are not merely decorative pieces, but indispensable core components in communication systems. Their main functions can be summarized as follows:

1. Protection and Safety

Physical Protection: The face plate, with its robust plastic or metal casing, effectively protects internal Keystone modules, RJ45 sockets, and other interfaces from damage caused by dust, liquids, or accidental impacts, ensuring long-term network connection stability.

Electrical Insulation: High-quality face plate materials possess excellent insulation properties, preventing short circuits and leakage, ensuring user safety and the normal operation of equipment.

2. Connection and Management

Convenient Access: As the "face" of a wall or cabinet, the face plate provides a standardized interface layout, making fiber optic or copper cable connections more organized and facilitating installation and subsequent maintenance.

Label Management: Through the pre-drilled holes on the face plate, users can easily affix labels to quickly identify the purpose of different ports, improving the efficiency of troubleshooting and daily management.

3. Aesthetics and Professionalism

Unified Appearance: The panel integrates scattered cables and interfaces into a square box, concealing messy wiring terminals and making the computer room or office environment cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing.

Brand Image: High-quality panels enhance the professionalism of the entire communication system, meeting the requirements of modern architecture and enterprises for "refined engineering."

Key Functions Specific Roles
Protection & Safety Prevents damage from dust, liquids, and accidental impacts; ensures electrical insulation to prevent short circuits
Connectivity & Management Provides standardized port layout for quick access and maintenance; supports labeling for rapid fault identification
Aesthetics & Professionalism Organizes tangled cables, hides internal terminals, enhancing overall tidiness of server rooms or offices

What is the difference between Betterbell's communication face plates and ordinary junction boxes?

The communication panels produced by Ningbo Betterbell Telecommunication Equipment Co., Ltd. differ fundamentally from ordinary junction boxes in design and function:

1. Differences in Design Positioning

Face Plate: Primarily used for wall mounting, providing an aesthetically pleasing external interface display surface. It is the "front end" for direct interaction between the system and the user, typically used to display standard interfaces such as RJ45 and fiber optics.

Gunnel Box (Mounting Box): Usually refers to a wall box or bottom box, which is the "basic support" for mounting the face plate. Junction boxes are primarily used for mounting inside walls, providing internal space for Keystone modules or other sub-boards, serving a "concealed" function.

2. Differences in Structure and Function

Front Panel: Emphasizes appearance, interface layout, and ease of plugging and unplugging. It typically has screw holes for securing the front panel.

Jungle Box: Emphasizes structural strength and internal space. It usually has mounting clips or slots to secure the front panel and provides sufficient space for multiple cables.

3. Differences in Usage Scenarios

Front Panel: Primarily used in equipment rooms, front-end of patch panels, or on walls for direct use by end users.

Jungle Box: Primarily used for wiring management inside walls or equipment; it's the "unsung hero" of the front panel and is usually not visible.

Comparison Dimension Betterbell Face Plate Standard Mounting Box (BoxMounting Box)
Primary Positioning Serves as the external display surface, the front-end directly interacted with by users Acts as an internal support structure, concealing the installed face plate
Functional Focus Emphasizes aesthetics, port layout, and ease of plug insertion Emphasizes structural strength and internal space for housing cables
Typical Location Mounted on walls or the front of cabinets, directly exposed Installed within walls or behind equipment, usually not visible

Does Betterbell have dedicated front panel products for Fiber to the Home (FTTH)?

Ningbo Betterbell Telecommunication Equipment Co., Ltd. not only provides standard communication front panels but also has developed dedicated front panel products specifically for FTTH.

1. Dedicated Product Line

FTTH Termination Boxes/Panels: Betterbell manufactures FTTH termination boxes and panels specifically for FTTH networks. These products are typically used at the final distribution point after fiber optic cables enter the user's home, splicing or distributing fiber optic cables to indoor patch cords.

Modular Design: FTTH panels are typically equipped with pre-drilled holes, allowing users to install LC, SC, or other types of fiber optic modules as needed, flexibly adapting to different operator fiber optic standards.

2. Product Specifications and Features

Standardized Size: FTTH panels typically use standard 86mm or 120mm square dimensions for easy installation with wall-mounted boxes.

High-Density Connections: Designed for the high bandwidth requirements of FTTH, these panels feature high-density fiber optic connection ports, ensuring complete optical signal transmission.

3. Application Scenarios

Fiber to the Home: These dedicated panels are widely used in Fiber to the Home (FTTH) projects, acting as a bridge between the operator's fiber optic lines and the user's home network, providing a reliable fiber optic interface.

Product Type Core Features Application Scenarios
FTTH Termination Box / Panel Supports LC/SC and other fiber modules; high-density connections; standardized 86mm/120mm square dimensions FTTH (Fiber to the Home) projects; bridging carrier fiber lines with user internal networks
Modular Design Allows users to install various fiber modules as needed; accommodates multiple carrier standards Fiber distribution points; home fiber interface upgrades
High-Performance Connectivity Ensures complete transmission of optical signals; supports high-bandwidth requirements Data centers and high-performance network environments

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What indicators should I pay attention to when choosing a face plate?

A: You should pay attention to the panel material (ABS plastic or metal), thickness (common 86mm, 86x86mm, 100mm), compatible module standards (US/UK/German standards), and whether it meets fire protection standards.

Q2: What are the cost advantages of bulk purchasing face plates?

A: Bulk purchasing usually allows for OEM customization services, and logistics costs are relatively lower, making it suitable for large data centers or renovation projects.

Q3: What are the differences in panel materials?

A: Common materials include ABS plastic (lightweight, low cost) and metal (durable, good protection). High-end panels usually require flame-retardant materials.

Q4: Can the panel be installed outdoors?

A: Yes, but you need to choose an outdoor panel with a waterproof and dustproof rating (IP rating). Ordinary indoor panels are not suitable for prolonged exposure to rain.
