Factory Installed Fiber-optic Termination System

 
Features
  • For splicing up to four fiber drop cable to a fiber distribution cable
  • Allows for testing entire system before it goes to the field
  • Designed to work with central core tube cable and stranded fiber
  • Significantly reduces the cost of deploying fiber in the local loop
  • Meets same environmental/mechanical performance specifications as XAGA 1650 closures (filled splice closure based on heat-shrink technology)
     

The Factory Installed
Fiber-Optic Termination System (FITS FOSC) is a
taut-sheath, in-line closure for
"pre-terminated plant" where all fiber splicing and closure installations are done in a controlled factory environment.

  

Installed closures can be shipped to the field on 30-inch reels and pulled through two-inch bores with up to 600 pounds of force.

Closure sealing and cable strain relief are achieved by heat shrinking an outer body or sheath. During the installation, a cable core blocking system capable of withstanding a 20-foot waterhead for 30 days seals to protect the termination.
