According to Corning, its optical splice enclosures (OSE-RXD) are designed to help manage the transition between high-fibre count outside plant ribbon cables, such as the Corning RocketRibbon cable family and fire-retardant indoor cables in fibre optic networks.

This, apparently, makes them ideal for use in data centre interconnect applications.

The OSE-RXD was developed with simplified cable entry and management in mind to support reduced installation times for network applications with extremely high fibre counts.

Unlike standard splice enclosures the OSE holds vertically integrated 288-fibre splice trays that allow for a single incoming cable leg length, resulting in ease of installation and enhanced time savings over traditional splice enclosures for the installer.

The splice enclosure ships complete with splice trays providing capacity for up to 6,912 spliced fibres – or up to 13,824 with the RXD-HD – and all accessories for wall-mounted or 19-in equipment rack applications.
