The OMT-8B is supplied with the LTIPS-6 shown below on the

right. An optional universal cube LTIPS-6-2-U shown on the left OMT-8B

MP-6 and MP-6P may also be ordered.

This is a 19 inch, 1RU mounting panel for 6 modems. The basic Fiber Optic Ethernet Transceiver

unit comes complete with all necessary mechanical hardware, with

the exception of the mounting screws necessary to attach the

panel to the rack . The un-powered version MP-6 is shown in the

picture.
