Non Stock Item- Check Lead time

The Aerial Fibre Node is an IP55/IK08 rated enclosure manufactured from UV stabilised polymer and can be either pole or wall mounted.
The enclosure can be supplied in several colours, including black, white and grey. It has provision for a moulded customer logo if required.

The enclosure consists of 3 separate fibre management areas:

- Inbound Cable Management
The lower section of the enclosure has four dedicated entry ports to support both mid-span and spur fibre cables with strain relief for all incoming feeder cables. This area provides positive fibre management and loop storage for a maximum of 144 fibres.

- Fibre Splice Management Area
A dedicated splice management tray sits above the fibre storage area and has capacity for up to 48 x 3A heatshrink splices (when double stacked), with a maximum splice protector length of 60mm. The tray provides separate fibre management areas for 250μm fibres and 600/900μm pigtails whilst maintaining 30mm minimum bend radius
throughout.

- Drop Cable Management
The drop cable management area consists of a removable upper fibre management tray which presents 24 x LC or SC simplex adapters for connection to industry standard pre-terminated drop cables and prevents access to the lower splicing area when in place. Fibre management is provided on the underside of the tray for 600/900μm pigtails allowing the spare cable to be maintained separately from the 250μm feeder cable fibres.

Retaining features allow up to six PLC splitters to be mounted allowing for both 1x4 and 1x8 PON split ratios to be accommodated. The fibre management maintains a 30mm minimum bend radius throughout with a cross over facility to allow for alternative routing requirements.

The LC simplex adapters on the customer facing side of the tray are angled and spaced to allow for inspection prior to connection. 12 anchor guides are provided for securing the drop cables. Drop cable exit ports use a split seal and collar to ensure performance in excess of IP55.
