24/48/72/96/144 Cores Fiber Optic Vertical Heat-Shrink Closure 1 Oval 8 Round Ports

Preparation: The cables are prepared by stripping back the outer jackets, armors, and buffer tubes to expose the individual fibers.

Splicing: Fibers are spliced together (usually via fusion splicing) and the splices are protected and stored in the splice trays.

Assembly: The splice trays are stacked onto the central core inside the base. The fibers are carefully routed with sufficient bend radius.

Sealing:

• The heat-shrink sleeve is slid over the cable bundle at the base.

• The dome is placed over the base.

• The heat-shrink sleeve is positioned so it covers part of the dome and the base, bridging the gap over the cables.

• Using a propane torch or a specially designed heat gun, the technician evenly heats the sleeve until it has fully shrunk and the sealant is visibly oozing from both ends.

Mounting: The sealed closure is then mounted in its final vertical position.

Aerial Networks: Mounted on telephone/power poles.

Underground Networks: Installed in manholes or handholes.

Buried Applications: Directly buried or placed in a pedestal.

FTTx Access Networks: Serving as a distribution point to split fibers to multiple subscribers.
