Splice Closure WTC1-FTTH The LINX WTC-FTTH Splice case product range is designed for enclosing buried, underground, and overhead cable splices and connectors in FTTH networks.
Standards
International  Nexans specification; Telcordia GR-771
National  CSE C 69-31; CSE C 69-32; FT/FTRD/7095; FT/FTRD/7097
Description

Watertight Closure for Fibre Optic Cables

  • 4 Cable ports,
  • Re-enterable, fully mechanical watertight system,
  • IP68 and pressurizable,
  • Capacity : up to 3 splice trays,
  • Multi-cable sealing system (up to 12 cables per port).

 

Application

Cabling configuration :

  • Standard,

  • Straight Mid-span.

(All available for aerial, buried, duct, or wall mounted applications).

 

Fiber management :

Several configurations and configurations are available for Splicing, Splitting and/or connecting fibres :

  • Internal coiling + Connectors,

  • Splicing/Splitting + connectors.

All configurations are modular and allow easy upgrades.

 

Grounding :

  • Standard grounding assures electrical continuity between all cable ports (an external grounding plug is also available).

 

Cable anchoring :

  • Simplified FTTH cables anchoring systems are available as well as standard high-retention clamps.

 

The main functions are :

  • to protect splices, bare fibers, splitters and connectors from the environment and unwanted handlers,

  • to efficiently and easily store, manage and identify FO connections.

 

Conception

Sealing system :

  • Fully mechanical sealing system for reduced installation and re-entry time.

The top shell, sealed with a gasket, can be easily installed and removed without special tools or torque control.

  • Cable sealing devices based on a mechanical compression system allowing re-using all components for future upgrades or re-accessing to the closure.

(No tape, glue, heat-shrink tubes, or cable jacket preparation is needed).
