Description

Application

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

The main Functions are:
  • To protect splices and bare fibres from the environment and unwanted handlers
  • To efficiently and easily store, manage and identify FO splices and fibres.

Product usage
Sealing system
  • Fully mechanical sealing system for reduced installation and re-entry time.
    The dome, 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).
  • L’étanchéité des entrées de câble est assurée par un système de compression mécanique ; ceci permet des mises à jour ultérieures, une réutilisation des composants et une réouverture facile du boîtier (pas de bande adhésive ni colle ou de préparation nécessaire).

Cable anchoring

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

 

Fiber management

Splice trays for up to 12 cores each can manage loose tube, tight buffer or ribbon cable:
All configurations are modular and allows easy upgrades.

Grounding

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

Cable anchoring:  

  • Standard.
  • Butt Mid-span
     

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