Designed for data centers, enterprises, and service providers pursuing scalable fiber migration, the Panduit QuickNet Fiber Optic Migration Adapter Panel with 8 MPO key-up/key-down adapters delivers a high-density, reliable solution that streamlines transitions to modern MPO-based networks. This panel is built to handle the demanding environments of 19" rack installations, delivering precise alignment, durable construction, and intuitive polarity control to minimize downtime and maximize fiber performance. With eight MPO ports in a compact footprint, it’s an ideal choice for projects that require rapid deployment, easy administration, and robust cable management as fleets of fibers migrate from legacy architectures to cutting-edge multi-fiber architectures. Whether upgrading data center interconnects or expanding campus and edge networking capabilities, this migration panel helps teams optimize space, simplify labeling, and accelerate migration timelines without compromising signal integrity.

• High-density eight MPO adapters in a single panel - The QuickNet Migration Adapter Panel consolidates eight MPO connections in a compact, rack-mountable unit, delivering impressive port density for modern data centers. Designed for low insertion loss and excellent polarization control, these adapters support high-bandwidth applications such as 40/100 Gbps Ethernet and multi-fiber interconnects. By housing eight ports in one panel, it reduces the need for multiple accessories, simplifies labeling, and cuts installation time, enabling faster migration from legacy fiber layouts to MPO-based networks.
• Key-up/key-down polarity configuration - The panel features a practical key-up/key-down design that ensures correct polarity during migration, simplifying pairing and reducing the risk of mis-patched connections. This feature is crucial when migrating large-scale fiber trees where polarity can otherwise become a source of next-hop errors. Installers appreciate the intuitive orientation that helps maintain consistent signal paths and minimizes post-install testing to locate polarity issues.
• Premium build quality for harsh data center environments - Crafted from durable materials with precise tolerances, the migration panel is built to withstand the rigors of daily rack activity. The chassis offers robust mechanical stability, corrosion resistance, and reliable port alignment to maintain performance even in environments with high temperature fluctuations and dense cabling. The design also emphasizes efficient heat management and battery-in-time reliability for critical links, making it a dependable cornerstone of your fiber migration strategy.
• Seamless compatibility with Panduit QuickNet systems and MPO networks - This migration adapter panel is engineered to integrate flawlessly with Panduit QuickNet infrastructure, providing a familiar, plug-and-play experience for technicians already using Panduit components. It supports MPO/MTP fiber assemblies and aligns with common MPO termination practices, enabling smooth migration workflows from SC/UPC or LC termination schemes to MPO-based ecosystems. The panel's design minimizes compatibility concerns by maintaining consistent connector geometry and standardized spacing for easy cable routing and strain relief.
• Comprehensive cable management and ease of installation - In addition to eight adapters, the panel emphasizes thoughtful cable management features, including clean routing paths, integrated strain relief, and labeling-friendly surfaces. It helps technicians organize fiber runs, reduce bend radii, and ensure orderly maintenance. The panel is designed for straightforward mounting in standard 19" racks and is compatible with a broad range of MPO trunk and fan-out assemblies, empowering teams to scale deployments with confidence while protecting fiber integrity.
