New COYOTE® DEN Enclosure from Preformed Line Products Provides a Consolidated Demarcation Solution for Fiber-to-the-Premises Networks


CLEVELAND, Feb. 23 / -- The new COYOTE DEN Demarcation Enclosure from Preformed Line Products (PLP) consolidates and protects electronic equipment against physical damage and temperature extremes at the residential network demarcation point. Its large interior (15" x 13" x 7.5") accommodates a removable chassis for mounting Optical Network Units (ONU), Battery Back-up Units (BBU) and Power Supply Units (PSU). The DEN is compatible with COYOTE fiber management hardware and splice trays, and has capacity for structured wiring and demarcation components.

The COYOTE DEN Fiber-to-the-Premises (FTTP) network interface is constructed of flame-retardant, impact and UV-resistant thermoplastic resin, with a double wall, foam insulation and a gasketed, lockable door. It is designed for use with a passive convection ventilating system (kits sold separately) that draws cool air from the home's interior and vents heated air out to protect lower cost, non-hardened electronics from excessive heat and cold.

COYOTE DEN Demarcation Enclosures are designed for installation during the rough-in framing stage of a home's exterior walls. They include pass-through openings to feed cables directly into the wall, protecting drop and premise wiring cables from physical damage. There are also provisions to mount an electrical box and standard receptacle (not included) to power battery back-up systems and other equipment. UL/CSA approved, the COYOTE DEN also meets NEMA 4 hose down requirements for the most demanding environmental conditions.
