Optical fiber splice enclosures are inexpendable when interconnection between segments of optical fiber cables is required without connection of active equipment or creation of cross-connections, providing fast, flexible, and cost-effective solution by means of fu-sion or mechanical splices. Physical protection of such connections and storage of fiber slack are also splice enclosure major func-tions.

Rack mount optical fiber splice enclosures termination density ranges between 24 and 192 splices depending on the number of 24-fiber splice trays used. Unique splice tray stacking mechanism allows adding trays and servicing each of them without disassembling the stack. Enclosures feature front and rear access hinged panels and sliding-out support stages. The transparent plastic front panel enables visual inspection of the enclosure contents when closed. Internal cable anchor points and fiber slack management mecha-nisms ensure reliable cable fixing, safe cable/fiber tension and bend radii. Cable entry points are equipped with rubber grommets preventing dust penetration when the entry point is not used, and protecting optical fiber cable from kinks that sharp edges of the enclosure case may cause.

Steel case and high-impact black epoxy-powder anticorrosive paint provide excellent protection of optical fiber connections. Enclo-sures include one 24-fiber splice tray (P/N FST-24P) and are supplied with a complete set of fastening elements and installation guidelines.
