A brief introduction to fiber optic splicing enclosures

Fiber optic splicing enclosure is a connection part that connects two or more optical cables together and has protective parts. It belongs to the mechanical pressure sealing joint system and is a splicing protection device that provides continuity of optical, sealing and mechanical strength between adjacent optical cables. Fiber optic splicing enclosures are mainly used for straight-through and branch connections in overhead, pipeline, direct burial and other laying methods of optical cables of various structures.
The body of fiber optic splicing enclosure is made of imported reinforced plastic, which has high strength and corrosion resistance. The terminal box is suitable for the connection in the terminal room of the structural optical cable. The structure is mature, the sealing is reliable, and the construction is convenient. Widely used in communications, network systems, CATV cable television, optical cable network systems and so on. The fiber optic splicing enclosures have the following five basic properties.
1.Fiber optic splicing enclosures have the ability to restore the integrity of the cable jacket and the mechanical continuity of the cable strength members.
2. Provide the function of electrical connection, grounding or disconnection of metal members in the optical cable.
3. Fiber optic splicing enclosures have the properties to protect the optical fiber connector from environmental influences.
4. Provide the function of placing optical fiber connectors and storing the remaining optical fibers.

5. When required, the fiber optic splicing enclosures should also be termite resistant.
