Rittal 7241005 Fibre-optic Splicing Box - Depth-variable 1U
Part Number: 7241005
Quick Summary
Rittal 7241005 Fibre-optic splicing box is designed to accommodate splicing cassettes in 19-inch network distributors. Engineers often struggle with depth adjustment and twist-proof cassette mounting in tight enclosures. This box aligns with ETIM EC001130 and ECLASS 8.0 19170113 classifications, helping ensure accurate cataloging and seamless integration with procurement workflows. In practice, it supports efficient fibre termination and cassette mounting within standard 482.6 mm racks, enabling scalable splicing solutions for data centers, manufacturing networks, and industrial automation cabinets. With depth-variable capability and pull-out-free design, installers save time during cabling and testing. Its 482.6 mm frame and mounting accessories enable rapid integration with patch panels and distribution cabinets, improving overall installation reliability.

Article number
DK 7241.005
Product description
The 482.6 mm (19") splicing box is designed to accommodate splicing cassettes and can be installed in any network distributor with 482.6 mm (19") accommodation and used as a fibre-optic termination or distributor. The variable cassette fixture permits twist-proof installation of all standard splicing cassettes. The rear section of the splicing box is completely open for cable entry, a rubber cable clamp strip provides protection against dust. The fibre-optic cables can be secured with cable ties or cable clamps. The splicing box is infinitely depth-adjustable up to 100 mm within the 482.6 mm (19") flanges. In addition, the splicing box may be fully withdrawn from the 482.6 mm (19") flanges. Two strain relief clips and cable routing clips for the fibre stock provide a solution to suit any fibre-optic wiring system.

DK Fibre-optic splicing box, 1 U, For D: 302 mm, without pull-out, depth-variable
1) 1U height and standard 482.6 mm 19-inch rack compatibility enable efficient space planning and plug-and-play integration in mixed-use cabinets. This alignment reduces depth conflicts during retrofits and accelerates module swaps across multiple bays in data centers and industrial control rooms. The result is predictable installation timelines and lower project risk. 2) Depth-adjustable up to 100 mm within the flange assembly; the splicing box can be fully withdrawn from rails. This enables precise cassette positioning and easier fault isolation during maintenance windows, cutting downtime. Ideal for fibre termination or distribution in 19-inch network distributors where space is at a premium. 3) Rear entry for cables with a rubber cable clamp strip provides dust protection. The arrangement improves cable integrity in dusty or harsh environments and reduces contamination risk during servicing. It's well-suited for factory floors, data centres, and industrial automation cabinets. 4) Supplied accessories include the splicing box, cable routing clips, cassette cover, and mounting accessories for patch panels. This reduces sourcing steps, speeds up deployment, and delivers cleaner, more maintainable installations. Particularly beneficial when integrating splicing cassettes with patch panels in 19-inch systems. 5) Maximum two splicing cassettes per box provides scalable termination capacity without oversizing the cabinet. This supports cost-efficient configuration planning for small to mid-sized fibre networks and controlled environments. 6) Sheet steel construction in RAL 7035, weight ~3.36 kg per pack, and PCF of 12.8 kg CO2 eq (Cat B) offer durable, color-standardized, and sustainability-aligned equipment. For procurement, this translates to predictable handling, easy identification, and a lower environmental footprint over the lifecycle. 7) Note: Patch panels and splicing cassettes are not included with the unit, allowing customers to source components that fit their existing configurations.

FAQs
Yes. The DK 7241.005 is designed for standard 482.6 mm (19-inch) rack mounting and works with common patch panel setups. Its 1U height and depth-variable capability support flexible integration in mixed cabinet environments, simplifying upgrades and retrofits while maintaining orderly cable management.
The splicing box supports a maximum of two splicing cassettes per unit. This capacity suits many small to mid-sized fibre networks, enabling efficient termination and distribution without oversizing cabinets or increasing spatial constraints.
The enclosure offers infinitely variable depth adjustment up to 100 mm within the 482.6 mm flange; it can be fully withdrawn from the rails for servicing. This simplifies cassette alignment, reduces splice errors, and minimizes downtime during maintenance windows.
The DK 7241.005 references ETIM EC001130 (ETIM 9) and ECLASS 8.0 19170113, aiding accurate data tagging and interoperability with procurement systems. These classifications streamline cataloging, product searches, and integration with enterprise asset management workflows.
Constructed from sheet steel in RAL 7035 and weighing about 3.355 kg per pack, the unit offers durable service in industrial settings. Its PCF value is 12.8 kg CO2 eq (Cat B), supporting lifecycle assessments and sustainability goals while providing predictable handling and color-coded identification for field teams.
