Quick Summary
Rittal 7451000 Small fibre-optic distributor provides compact fibre management for fibre networks in control cabinets. Engineers often wrestle with crowded enclosures, difficult cable routing, and inadequate sealing. This IP66-rated, fiberglass-reinforced polycarbonate enclosure offers a mounting plate with adjustable space for up to two splicing cassettes and an anti-twist guard, supporting scalable fibre layouts. With ETIM 7.0 EC002500 and ECLASS 8.0 27180208 classifications, it aligns with standard industry data. By integrating pre-fitted glands and a robust sealing system, it delivers faster installation, improved reliability, and reduced maintenance costs across automation projects. Secondary advantages include consistent material quality and color (RAL 7035), which aid visual management in busy production environments.

FAQs
The DK 7451.000 provides a mounting plate with variable accommodation for up to two splicing cassettes (cassette width 92–120 mm) and an integral anti-twist guard, plus a divider plate and insulating bungs. This enables flexible fibre routing and straightforward retrofits within standard Rittal enclosures, reducing field modification time and risk.
This distributor supports up to 24 fibres, organized within a compact WHD of 180x254x90 mm. It uses a fibreglass-reinforced polycarbonate enclosure with a foamed-in PU seal to achieve IP66 protection, ensuring reliable operation in dusty or wet industrial environments.
Yes. The IP66 rating denotes excellent ingress protection against dust and water, and the fiberglass-reinforced polycarbonate construction provides impact and chemical resistance. The pre-installed cable glands and robust mounting features make it well-suited for factory floors, outdoor facilities, and other demanding areas.
The product aligns with industry standards and classifications, including ETIM 7.0 EC002500 and ECLASS 8.0 27180208. It also carries a valid EAN (4028177130562) and a packaging specification of 1 piece per pack, supporting integration into BOMs and procurement workflows.
Installation benefits include ready-to-wire glands, a mounting plate for two splicing cassettes, and included dividing and insulating components, which collectively reduce assembly steps and field labor. Over time, the durable IP66 enclosure minimizes maintenance and potential fibre integrity issues, delivering lower total cost of ownership in automation projects.
