MDB - Modular Distribution Box
Metal distribution box for DIN rail mounting
The AIXONTEC Modular Distribution Box (MDB) is a unique multimedia solution to realize a high quality cabling solution on a DIN rail. The robust metal housing, with a material thickness of 1.5mm, can also be used for mounting on a wall, table or other surface. The MDB modular distribution box is available in standard (up to 48 fibers/12-port copper modules) and MDB-Compact (1/2-port keystone) versions. The system can be modularly equipped with a variety of different connection technologies. The modular distribution box has many different front panels which are exchangeable and can be easily unscrewed from the box. Due to the own production of our MDB product line a constant spare parts supply is possible by short delivery times.

In general, the MDB product line can be divided into the following application variants:
- EasyPatch-CU/FO (equipped MDB housings with couplers, for easy installation with copper or fiber optic cables)
- Install-CU (equipped MDB housings with copper modules, for direct installation on copper data cables)
- Splice-FO (equipped MDB housings with fiber optic couplers with integrated splice cassette, pigtails and crimp splice protection and crimp splice protection holder, for own assembly and splicing)
- SpliceReady-FO (as Splice-Fo, but with pre-assembled pigatils with stepped fibers, rolled into the splice cassette and delivered ready for splicing)

| Your advantages at a glance
Our MDB product line offers many advantages to protect and professionally install your high-quality connection technology. The system can be equipped with different modules and can be installed very easily and safely. The different combination possibilites allow a high flexibility for the respective application. Thanks to the vertical or horizontal mounting, the housing can be used on an DIN rail in a space-saving way.
High modularity
The standard MDB housing can be equipped with various high-quality copper and fiber optic modules. The combination of different modules on one Keystone module plate is also possible. The MDB housing is variably available with different front panels, which can be exchanged or extended later. With the Keystone front panel not only RJ-45 and fiber optic modules but also USB/HDMI/Cinch or other keystone capable modules can be accommodated.
metallic splice cassette
Our Splice-FO and SpliceReady-FO variants are supplied together with a splice cassette specially developed by us. The metallic robust splice cassette can hold up to 2 splice holders with 12 fibers each. The specially developed splice cassette allows the pigtails to be laid down with an optimum bending radius of Ø 50mm. The splice cassette has pre-punched holes that can be used to attach the pigtails as well as modularly attached to other media. The splice cassette is mounted on the front panel and can be extended or replaced.
many mounting options
With the standard MDB we generally offer the possibility to mount the housing on a DIN rail, wall or aluminium profile. By default, our MDB housing is supplied with a DIN rail holder for secure mounting on a DIN rail. Suitable DIN rails in special lengths can be ordered from us together with the system. The housing can be installed on a DIN rail horizontally as well as vertically. The standard MDB housing has 4 cable entries, which can be used optimally depending on the installation orientation. The cable entry is done via M25 cable glands, which provide a secure hold and protection for your cable. We offer matching accessories for mounting on 40x40 or 45x45 aluminum profiles with 8er groove.
Multimedia solution
With the Keystone front panel different modules can be placed on one front panel to realize a multimedia solution. The possibility is very interesting to safely install and protect different modules in a distribution box in a space-saving way. The fixed installation of multimedia connection technology on a housing for industrial or event technology, offers a high flexibility of apllication possibilities for the user. Here, for example LC/RJ-45/USB or HDMI can be accommodated on a front panel.
Installation inside the housing
The AIXONTEC MDB housing has been designed for an optimal bending radius for copper and fiber optic cables. Due to the unscrewable front panel, the modules can be installed on the front panel with little effort. For the installation of fiber optic modules a special splice cassette with integrated splice holder has been developed to install the pigtails or cables with an optimal bending radius. The side panel offers the possibility to check the installation and to access the housing at any time. The MDB housing has an extra fixture to securely screw a grounding cable.
Customzied manufacturing
Our complete MDB product line can be manufactured and equipped according to customer specifications. The housing can be ordered and delivered in different materials and colors depending on the order volume. The modular front panel can also be equipped with different modules according to customer requirements, depending on the application area. Specially manufactured and customized front panels can be requested from us.
Port labeling
For our MDB housings we offer a simple way to professionally identify the individual port numbers by color. Our port labels can be used perfectly for the color identificacion of the MDB housings. The port labels can be labeled individually and are available in different colors and designs. We also offer matching cable flags and wrap-around labels to mark the corresponding cables appropriately.
