Fiber optic splice closure Alantec FOM-72K vertical, up to 72 splices, complete kit with splice trays and heat-shrink sleeves

The Alantec FOM-72K vertical fiber optic splice closure supports up to 72 fusion splices and is supplied as a complete kit that includes splice trays, splice protectors, mounting hardware and heat-shrink sleeves. Designed to organize and protect spliced fibers in distribution networks, this vertical closure is suitable for installation inside cabinets or in outdoor enclosures where mechanical protection and environmental sealing are required. The compact vertical layout enables orderly fiber routing and access for maintenance while keeping splices secure from mechanical stress and moisture.

Advantages

The closure provides modular splice management with preconfigured trays and heat-shrink sleeves for immediate installation. Its vertical form factor optimizes use of space within racks and enclosures and simplifies fiber entry and exit. The complete kit reduces the need for additional components and speeds up deployment. Constructed to provide physical protection and environmental resistance, the closure supports organized cable management, strain relief and reliable splice protection for long-term network operation.

Suitable for

• Fiber distribution frames and indoor fiber cabinets
• Outdoor enclosures where compact vertical splice management is needed
• Point-to-point and distribution network splice points
• Telecommunication rooms and data center fiber management

Key specifications

• Splice capacity: up to 72 fusion splices
• Form factor: vertical splice closure
• Kit contents: splice trays, splice protectors, mounting hardware, heat-shrink sleeves
• Suitable for organized fiber routing and strain relief
• Intended use: protection and organization of fusion splices in distribution networks

How to use

Prepare incoming and outgoing fiber cables according to standard fusion splice procedures, strip and clean fibers, then perform fusion splicing. Place each splice into a splice protector and secure it within the supplied splice trays. Route fibers and trays into the vertical closure, ensuring proper bend radius and strain relief at cable entry points. Close and secure the housing following the manufacturer’s mounting instructions to maintain environmental sealing and mechanical protection. Verify continuity and signal integrity after installation.

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance, use compatible fusion splice protectors and follow standard fiber handling practices: maintain minimum bend radii, avoid excessive tension on fibers, and ensure seals and gaskets are correctly positioned to protect against moisture. Perform testing after installation and schedule periodic inspections to confirm mechanical integrity and environmental seals.
