Optical Fiber OSP Splice Closure | 265-OSC10-09602

VERTICAL CABLE 265-OSC10-09602 – OSP SPLICE CLOSURE, VERTICAL DOME, 96 FIBER, 2-PORT

The 265-OSC10-09602 is an OSP Splice Closure engineered for protecting fiber splices in demanding outdoor plant environments. This OSP Splice Closure features a vertical dome design with 2 cable entry ports and capacity for up to 96 fibers across 8 splice cassettes, making it ideal for aerial, buried, and pedestal fiber deployments.

KEY FEATURES

Here’s what makes the 265-OSC10-09602 ideal for outside plant fiber installations:

• 96-Fiber Capacity: Accommodates up to 96 fibers using 8 × 12-fiber splice cassettes for high-density splice applications.
• Vertical Dome Design: Compact vertical orientation optimizes space in aerial, pedestal, and handhole installations.
• 2-Port Cable Entry System: Two cable entry ports accept cables from 0.28 in. to 0.55 in. (7–14 mm) diameter.
• IP68 Environmental Protection: Dust-tight and protected against continuous water immersion for reliable underground and exposed installations.
• UV-Resistant Housing: High-impact fiber-reinforced polycarbonate withstands prolonged sun exposure without degradation.
• Weather-Resistant & Sealed Construction: Engineered to protect splices from moisture, dust, and environmental contaminants.
• Tool-Free Resealing: Easy re-entry and resealing without specialized tools for efficient maintenance and network upgrades.
• Wide Operating Temperature: Performs reliably from -40°F to +149°F (-40°C to +65°C) in extreme climates.
• High-Impact Material: Fiber-reinforced polycarbonate construction resists physical damage during installation and service.

APPLICATIONS

The 265-OSC10-09602 OSP Splice Closure excels in outside plant fiber infrastructure:

• Aerial Installations: Protect fiber splices on pole-mounted strand or lashed cable configurations.
• Direct Burial: Deploy in underground installations where IP68 waterproof protection is essential.
• Pedestal Mounting: Install in above-ground pedestals for accessible fiber distribution points.
• Handhole and Vault: Use in below-grade access points for fiber splice protection.
• FTTH Distribution: Serve as splice points in fiber-to-the-home networks connecting feeder and distribution cables.

WHY CHOOSE THE 265-OSC10-09602 OSP SPLICE CLOSURE?

Professionals choose the 265-OSC10-09602 because it delivers reliable fiber splice protection with high capacity and easy serviceability in demanding outside plant environments. Here are 5 reasons to specify it for your next OSP project:

1. Complete Environmental Sealing – IP68 rating and UV-resistant housing ensure long-term reliability in aerial, buried, and exposed installations.
2. High-Density Splice Capacity – 96-fiber capacity with 8 splice cassettes accommodates large fiber counts in a compact enclosure.
3. Flexible Cable Accommodation – 2-port entry system accepts cables from 7–14 mm diameter for compatibility with various cable types.
4. Easy Maintenance Access – Tool-free resealing enables efficient re-entry for network upgrades, troubleshooting, and splice additions.
5. Extreme Temperature Performance – Operating range of -40°F to +149°F ensures reliable operation in arctic to desert climates.

WHAT’S NEXT?

Once you’ve specified the 265-OSC10-09602 for your project:

• Plan Cable Entry – Verify cable diameters fall within the 7–14 mm range and determine entry port assignments.
• Select Splice Components – Order appropriate splice holders and heat-shrink splice protection sleeves for your fiber count.
• Determine Mounting Method – Choose aerial, pedestal, direct burial, or handhole mounting based on your deployment requirements.
• Test After Installation – Verify splice quality with OTDR testing and confirm enclosure seal integrity before backfilling or closing access points.
