Traditional telecom breaker and fuse panels use terminal lugs for output connections and therefore require specialized technicians to add or change loads. The Matrix C16™ panel uses locking plug-in connectors offering a significant improvement in ease of use and cost of installation. The 1RU configuration, with 400A of current capacity and 16 breaker positions, offers industry leading density. Accepting single-pole breakers rated up to 100A each, the Matrix C16™ panel can support the majority of network loads within headends, central offices, and hub sites.

The internal buswork has been enlarged, adding 33 percent more total ampacity than our standard Matrix panel. To allow better visibility of power status, the Matrix C16™ panel is available with an advanced supervisory controller and remote ethernet monitoring options. The supervisory controller module has a Smartswitch LCD for voltage, current, and breaker trip alarm. Models with ethernet provide advanced monitoring capabilities including individual breaker threshold warnings.
