Overview

The Panduit OFCI1810BR In-Line Fiber Splice Closure is engineered for the robust management, organization, and protection of fiber optic cables and their splices in demanding outdoor and underground environments. This hermetically sealed enclosure provides IP68-rated protection, ensuring critical fiber optic splices are shielded from water ingress, making it ideal for underground and man/handhole installations. The closure is Telcordia GR-771-CORE validated for buried and underground applications, guaranteeing reliable performance where it matters most. Featuring a 4-port segmented end plate design, the OFCI1810BR allows for independent access to each cable port. This innovative design prevents disruption to surrounding cables during essential maintenance procedures. The flexible grommet sealing technology is engineered to accommodate a wide range of flat and round cable profiles, with diameters from 0.40" to 0.85". Internally, the closure supports a modular design with a removable splice tray system. This feature enables multiple technicians to work concurrently, significantly improving installation and maintenance efficiency. The OFCI1810BR can accommodate a maximum of 96 single fusion fibers or 288 ribbon fusion fibers, depending on the appropriate splice tray configuration (e.g., OFC24SST for 24 single fusion fibers or OFC40SST for 40 single fusion fibers). Each kit includes the closure assembly, a comprehensive grommet kit, dome, collar, gasket, and buffer tube organizer, ensuring out-of-the-box installation readiness. Manufactured in the USA, this closure meets Build America, Buy America and U.S. Trade Agreements Act requirements, making it suitable for federally funded projects.
