CORNING 2178-L/S SERIES FIBER OPTIC SPLICE CASES

Corning 2178-L/S Series Fiber Optic Splice Cases

The Corning 2178 Fiber Optic Splice Case family has always given you great protection for fiber optic connections. Now, the addition of Corning 2178-L/S Series Fiber Optic Splice Cases adds more capabilities to the family. With the new addition you get all the features of the popular 2178 splice case. Plus, the 2178-L/S series consists of a tough chemical-resistant material and a new gasket seal that make this the ideal splice case for outside plant, underground, aerial, pedestal and direct buried applications. The 2178-L/S series is designed with larger and smaller interchangeable closure halves so you can select the size case that meets your needs today, but with the flexibility to expand for the future. Cable ports and space for trays can be added at reentry with the Corning 2181-L/S Cable Addition Kit. The ease of installation is unsurpassed, requiring no special tools or complicated training procedures. The closures are easily reenterable to allow access to the splices. The 2178-L/S series feature a tough, rigid non-filled case, tested under real-world conditions, that stands up to even the most severe conditions of moisture, vibration and extreme temperatures. The closure will withstand up to 200 lbs. (90.7 kg) compression. Design improvements to the 2178-L/S series include changes to improve the cable strain relief and a movable tray support. The closures hold cable of varying sizes and provide flexibility to add ports on both ends with the cable addition kit. The 2178-L/S series splice cases can be used with the Corning 2522 or 2523 Small Fiber Splice Organizer Trays or the Corning 2524 Fibrlok™ Small Fiber Splice Organizer Tray and most other commercially available trays. 2178-L/S Series Fiber Optic Splice Cases · Constructed of a highly chemical-resistant material - Use in buried applications · Gasket seal - Easy reentry and reusable seal · Unique strength member clamp assembly - Prevents cable sheath movement with temperature changes · Several sizes with interchangeable parts - Expandable system to fit capacity and space requirements · Multiple cable entry options - Butt or in-line configuration for splicing · No special tools required - Easy installation and reentry · Non-filled closure - No compound required; easier reentry · Multiple ground studs - Isolated grounding capability · Pressurization Valve - Provides ability to flash test · Varying cable port sizes - Accommodates all common trunk and feeder cable sizes · Expandable from two cable entries per end up to eight - Add cable with minimum disturbance; eliminates splice rebuilding when adding lines 2522 and 2523 Fiber Optic Splice Organizer Trays · Meets Bellcore Requirement for bend diameter - Easy maintenance · Trays allow entry and exit of buffer tubing at any of the four corners - Provides flexibility in fiber management · Extra tray depth - Ribbon fiber may be coiled without twisting · Modular design of the splice holder - Accommodates many types of splices · Stackable hinged tray - Easy access without removing other trays Fibrlok™ 2524 Fiber Optic Splice Organizer Tray · Single entry point - Controls fiber management · Hinged trays snap together - Stackable; individual tray access · Flame retardant/ isopropyl alcohol resistant - Meets fire codes and industry standards · 4" (10.16 cm) bend diameter - Individual fiber access; allows easy maintenance
