A fiber distribution hub (FDH) is a cabinet that organizes and manages fiber optic connections between feeder cables and distribution cables. It is the central point in a fiber network where signals are split and routed toward homes, businesses, or other endpoints.

An outdoor fiber distribution hub provides a secure, weather-resistant enclosure that houses splitters and connectors. Feeder fibers from the central office enter the hub, where they are divided and distributed through smaller cables to serve multiple customers.

Clearfield FDHs are built on the Clearview® Cassette platform, creating consistency across network environments and simplifying deployment. They are designed for fast installation, reliable performance, and easy scalability, helping service providers lower costs while meeting broadband demand.

An FDH is a larger cabinet that manages feeder-to-distribution fiber connections for a broad service area. A fiber terminal, on the other hand, is located closer to the customer and provides the final access point for connecting individual homes or businesses.
