ALTOS® Loose Tube Cable and FRECAP 2 Closure with MAX Fibre Management

ALTOS® Loose Tube Cable and FRECAP 2 Closure with MAX Fibre Management

Get assured protection and installation versatility for your Corning ALTOS® loose tube cabling needs with our FRECAP 2 closure family.

Thanks to the gel-based sealing body, the FRECAP 2 fibre optic closure offers a high degree of flexibility when it comes to cable and tube configuration, both for initial configuration and for subsequent additions or changes. The innovative locking system provides even better protection for the fibres during operation.
The use of multiple entries expands the capacity of the eight individually and independently accessible ports, for example to securely manage up to 32 microtubes with an outer diameter of 7 mm.
FRECAP 2 uses Corning's MAX single and multifibre management system, thus allowing not only optimal storage of the fibres but also a high degree of flexibility for moves, adds and changes (MAC). The secure guidance and separation of the individual fibre pairs also provides special protection for the fibres in operation while work is being carried out on adjacent fibre pairs, for example.
