Description

Application

The LINX WTC Splice case product range is designed for enclosing buried, underground, and overhead cable splices.

The main functions are:

  • To protect splices and bare fibers from the environment and unwanted handlers
  • to efficiently and easily store, manage and identify FO splices and fibers.

Product usage
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: this allows to re-use all
    components for future upgrades or re-access to the closure. (No tape, glue, heat-shrink tubes, or cable jacket preparation is needed).
    The mechanical sealing system perfectly fits Cables blowing technology.
Grounding

Standard grounding assures electrical continuity between all cable ports (individual cable grounding is also available).

Cable anchoring

3 points cable clamps for extremely high cable retention, or simplified 1 point anchoring systems are available.

  Fiber management

Several fiber management configurations are available for loose tube, tight buffer or ribbon cable:

  • Standard splice trays
  • FiberArt

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

Cabling configuration

  • Standard
  • Butt Mid-Span
  • Straight Mid-span

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