FOSC 450

Fiber Optic Gel Splice Closure

• Butt splice closures
• Gel seal technology
• Hinging trays
• Superior fiber management

The FOSC family of fiber optic splice closures is available with gel sealing technology for cable terminations. This product line,  known as the FOSC 450 closure family, can be used in any environment (aerial, pedestal, buried, and underground) and for numerous splice applications (expressed, tap-off, branch and repair).

FOSC 450 gel splice closures feature splice capacity similar to that of FOSC 400 closures, and offer the same reliable and easy-to-use dome-to-base clamping system.

The major Difference with FOSC 450 gel splice closures is that the cable sealing terminations use gel-sealing technology instead of heat-shrink. Gel sealed cable terminations automatically adjust to cable size and shape, and they require no special tools, tapes or mastics to install. It is also easy to remove cables, and gel seals are completely reusable.

FOSC 450 splice closures have the following functions and features

• Single-ended design
• Available in five sizes (A, BS, B, C, and D)
• Base and dome are sealed with a clamp and O-ring system
• Either six (BS, B, C, and D) or four (A version) round cable ports are provided in a wraparound block with pre-installed gel profile for cable sealing. This block can be opened and closed repeatedly without the need to remove or replace the gel. With the use of special kits, multiple cables per port can be  installed.
• FOSC splice trays are hinged for access to any splice without disturbing other trays

Compatible with most common cable types:

• e.g. loose tube, central core, slotted core, ribbon fiber.
• Uncut or expressed fibers can be stored in storage baskets.
