We all know that the optical cable splice box is a connection part that connects two or more optical cables together and has protective components. It must be used in the construction of optical cable line engineering. So, what are the classifications of optical cable splice boxes? What are the functions of the optical cable splice box?
What are the classifications of optical cable splice boxes
1. According to the shape, it can be divided into horizontal and vertical.
2. According to the optical cable connection method, it can be divided into straight-through type and branch type.
3. According to whether the adapter can be assembled, it can be divided into the adaptable type and the non-mountable type.
4. According to the shell material, it can be divided into plastic shell and metal shell.
What are the functions of the optical cable splice box?
The optical cable splice box is the place where the end of the optical cable is connected, and then connected to the optical switch through the optical fiber jumper, which prevents the aging of materials caused by heat, cold, light, oxygen and microorganisms in nature, and has excellent mechanical strength. The outer casing and main structure of the optical cable splice box can endure the worst environmental changes, and at the same time play the role of flame retardant and waterproof, so that the vibration, impact, cable stretching and twisting are protected.
The optical cable splice box is suitable for the straight-through and branch connection of various structural optical cables such as overhead, pipeline, direct burial and other laying methods. The optical cable splice box is also suitable for the connection in the terminal room of the structured optical cable. Optical cable splice boxes are usually suitable for indoor or non-open outdoor use, and are not suitable for outdoor use. If they are to be used, protective measures should be taken.
Working temperature: Indoor type: -5℃~+40℃; Outdoor type: -20℃-+60℃. The optical cable splice box can play the role of protection and connection. The box body is made of reinforced plastic, which has high strength, corrosion resistance, mature structure, reliable sealing and convenient construction.
The above is the whole content of the classification of optical cable splice boxes and the functions of optical cable splice boxes. In fact, the main function of optical cable splice boxes is generally speaking, the products of optical cable connection protection. It can be used in overhead, direct buried and pipeline laying fiber optic cable lines.
