FiberGuide®: Fast and flexible
fiber protection
FiberGuide is a comprehensive raceway solution designed to protect
and route fiber optic patch cords and multi-fiber cable assemblies to
and from fiber splice enclosures, fiber distribution frames and fiber
optic terminal devices.
As an integrated portfolio, the FiberGuide system consists of software-
based design tools, modular components—horizontal and vertical runs
and elbows, downspouts, junctions, flexible exit kits—and dozens
of deployment options. The result is a single raceway system that is
easy and fast to deploy, highly flexible and ensures total off-frame
protection of one of your most valuable investments.

Bottom line benefits
The FiberGuide bottom line? A healthier bottom line.
Reduce total network costs
Add network capacity faster and more efficiently—resulting in lower labor and material costs and
higher profits. FiberGuide also helps lower your OpEx. Placing raceways overhead allows more
airflow through floor panels, helping to lower your power and cooling cost. Clearly-defined routing
paths also mean better cable organization that improves your space utilization.
Grow network revenue and profitability
Well-managed, easy-to-access fiber pathways enable you to better organize your equipment
without laying additional fiber miles. With FiberGuide, you can route, access and expand the use
of your fiber plant and grow revenue while minimizing CapEx.
Support future growth
Lane speeds, capacity demands and latency requirements are increasing exponentially. As a
result, network managers are re-thinking their basic network design. FiberGuide enables you to
adapt. It flexes and scales easily, so you can route and manage new cables as you add equipment
and extend the network where and when you need.
