Zyxel DX5301-B2

The DX5301-B2 can be used freestanding or wall mounted. It is connected by a flexible fibre patch lead to the FWO (fibre wall outlet - a small box permanently fitted to an interior wall by B4RN or trained volunteers). The flexible patch lead can be supplied in various lengths and care should be taken to avoid damage by animals or small children. A kink in the patch lead is enough to degrade or prevent the B4RN connection.
