AFL Apex™ X-2 Splice Tray with (2) Splice Modules (36 Single Splices or 144 Ribbon Fiber Splices)

Overview

The AFL Apex™ X-2 Splice Tray is a versatile fiber management component designed for organized, secure fiber splicing within network enclosures. This tray features universal splice modules that support a wide range of splicing requirements, including single fusion, mass fusion, and mechanical splices, as well as the integration of passive optical components like PLC splitters.

Engineered for high-density environments, the trays are organized in a hinging array. These trays automatically lock when tilted into the upward position, providing technicians with unobstructed access for both splicing operations and the storage of fiber slack below the tray level.

Key Features
