The main components of a splice box are the splice cassette that picks up the fibers and their reserves, and the front panel which contains different connectors for transmitting signals via copper or fiber optic cables. Splice trays are internal fiber management structures used to organize, protect, and separate optical fiber splices inside closures, terminal boxes, and distribution enclosures. Their primary function is mechanical rather than optical. Its role in containing such splices includes the protection of splices from environmental and mechanical strain determinants that would otherwise affect the effectiveness of the. Inside splice closures, cabinets, and distribution frames, dozens or even hundreds of fibers need to be managed in limited space. This is where a fiber optic splice tray is so. Sumitomo Electric Lightwave's (SEL) Splice Trays provide easy fiber installation in almost any condition.
