The UCB Fiber Optic Splice Closure is a general purpose fi ber optic splice closure. The closure is a sealed aluminum housing and may be encapsulated within an outer closure for maximum water and corrosion resistance. The design provides for triple water blocking of cables by means of grommets on the cable sheath, grommets on the core tubes, and encapsulant between the closures. The closure will accept four (4) outside plant or building cables in an in-line splice confi guration for end sheath or mid-sheath entry. Multi-range grommet and grip kits seal loose tube or unit tube type cables to the housing. The closure will accom-modate up to eight splice organizers for a total of 192 single fi ber fusion/mechanical splices or a total of 288 fi ber splices using mass splicing.

UCB Type Splice Closures are available in four custom confi gurations. Accessory kits are available to handle a wide range of applications in any desired combination of cables and splices. Refer to the product ordering informa-tion for detailed ordering information.

The UCB1 Splice Closure is the base closure kit includ-ing the cover, cable clamps, base, cover-to-base seal, and threaded assembly hardware. It is provided without splice organizers, grommet & grip kits, unit splitters, or bonding hardware.

The UCB2 Splice Closure includes the base closure kit, as well as all components necessary to complete a 48 single fi ber splice. The cable seals and grip blocks accept cables from 0.40 inches (10.2mm) to 0.96 inches (24.4mm) out-side diameter.

The UCB2 Closure includes two splice organizers, each of which accepts 24 fusion/mechanical splices per organizer. Bonding hardware is provided for two metallic cables.

The UCB3 Splice Closure includes the base closure kit, as well as all components necessary to complete a 72 single fi ber fusion splice in unit tube cables. The cable seals and grip blocks accept unit tube cables from 0.40 inches (10.2mm) to 0.96 inches (24.4mm) outside diameter. The UCB3 Closure includes three splice organizers, each of which accepts 24 fusion splices per organizer. Bonding hardware is provided for two metallic unit tube cables.

Benefi ts• Capable of accepting outside plant or build-

ing cables with either metallic or non-metallic strength members.

• Cables are sealed in the closure without the use of tapes or heating apparatus.

• Capable of up to 72 single fi ber fusion splices or 288 fi ber mass fusion splices.
