Radiator® II

Below Ground HDSLx 8-Slot Repeater Housing

Spec Sheet

ADC’s latest addition to its family of outside plant products, the Radiator® II Below Ground HDSLx Repeater Housing, is a highly cost- effective outside plant enclosure for local loop electronics. With its advanced thermal management capabilities, the Radiator II extends the life of enclosed cards or repeaters and reduces costly truck rolls and maintenance. Radial placement of card slots permits efficient and predictable thermal transfer for uniform cooling. In addition, its unique design allows the heat to radiate externally, increasing the reliability of the enclosed electronics.

Designed for manhole applications, the Radiator II below ground housing can be mounted horizontally which requires 50 percent less space, doubling the number of housings and quadrupling circuit density. When mounted vertically, the integrated tilt bracket greatly reduces the amount of clearance required. When deployed, the enclosure provides mounting for up to 8 single wide or 2 double wide 239-style HDSL, HDSL4, T1, ISDN, or DDS repeaters. Up to 6 double wide 239-style repeaters may be accommodated with an optional upgrade kit (catalog number (RAD-DWKIT).
