PrecisionFlex® FOX Splice Cassettes
PrecisionFlex® FOX Splice Cassettes are an LGX footprint splice cassette with advantages that improve efficiency in your interconnect panels. The FOX cassette housings combine removable mounting flanges/ears (for front or back installation), removable faceplates and splice modules (for ease of splicing), and allow for all types of cordage (including Air-Blown Fiber® Bundles & Tubes) to be terminated. All in a package that, unlike splice tray solutions, segments those splices from the others in the panel for ease of access in the future.
In addition, the cassettes feature translucent shuttered LC adapters when a VFL is used, a clear cover for visibility, a variety of mounting features, including options for wall- or DIN Rail-mounting (snap-on DIN-Rail mounting accessory available), and can be outfitted with MPO/MTPs.
