CCHE Pigtailed Splice Cassette

Closet Connector Housing (CCH) pigtailed splice cassettes enable faster field splicing and easy modular management of connectorization within the housing. They are preloaded and prerouted for quick fusion splicing of either individual or ribbon fiber pigtails, using the same space-saving platform as the standard CCH splice cassette.

The prerouted pigtailed cassettes reduce field labor by streamlining features and components to allow for efficiencies in the field. They are prepped with a 2 m pigtail assembly with all pre-existing CCH panel connector options. The pigtailed cassettes have colored 250 µm for ease of splicing. They also enable strain relief to be pre-applied to the assemblies from the manufacturing facility.

With the pigtailed cassette, individual splice tray or separate splice housings are eliminated, allowing splicing to be done away from the rack housing in more convenient workspaces. The modular design makes it easy to access the fiber in an individual cassette without disturbing the other fibers in the housing. Each cassette is shipped with the pigtailed CCH adapter panel of the customer’s choice, one rail for use with CCH-01U/2U/3U housings, and two rails used with CCH-04U housings. Grommets and cable ties for additional strain relief and protective braided tubing for incoming cable are also included. Splicing cassettes ship with the appropriate quantity and type of heat-shrink splice protectors.
