SN Mini
Shuttered Adapter

SENKO’s SN® Mini, shuttered, 4-channel (8 fibers) adapters are designed to offer maximum packing density at thefront of patch panels while significantly reducing the space consumption at the rear of the panel for BTW (BehindThe Wall) connectivity. In combination with SN® Mini connectors, as much as 14.1mm can be saved compared withstandard adapters and connectors, making it the ideal solution for opto-electronic applications requiring circuitboards or other vital components to share the same space as fiber the optic connectivity. The SN® Mini adapter
incorporates integrated shutters on the front side preventing unwanted contaminants entering the adapter, andproviding the operator with laser safety during operation. When the connector is patched to the adapter, the bodyof the connector (not the ferrule) pushes the shutter open allowing the ferrules to be guided into the adapter.
All of SENKO’s SN® adapters are designed either to be snapped into panel cut-outs or screwed into place. Adapters
incorporating an integrated fixing flange will require additional space between each cut-out and the maximumdensity per 1 RU (Rack Unit) will be lower.

FEATURES• Up to 70% BTW space saving compared with standardadapters and connectors• Maximum density 216CH/432F in 1RU• Integrated shutter reduces impact of dustand dirt ingress• Accepts SN® mini connectors (BTW side) and standard(front side)• Supports 200G/400G VSFF connectivity• Color coded for rapid Identification of fiber-type• Telcordia, ANSI, TIA and IEC Compliant• Identification marking for fast and simple connectoralignmentAPPLICATIONS• Customized opto-electronic equipment• Highest packing density within patch panels• Spine/leaf architectures within hyperscale data centers• High-density switch replication• High-density centralized cross-connects• Mass server consolidation EoR, MoR
