Overview
The FIBERLIGN Center-Lock Aerial Slack (CLAS) Storage System is designed to provide efficient in-span storage for ADSS fiber optic cables. By utilizing a unique center-lock hinge design, this system allows for organized slack management directly on the cable, supporting both cable-only and butt-splice configurations.
Constructed for durability in outdoor environments, the CLAS system features heavy-duty, UV-resistant strap fasteners. This tool-less design eliminates the need for metal mounting hardware, ensuring safety and compatibility with all dielectric cable materials. The 20-inch unit is engineered to accommodate a wide range of cable diameters up to 1 inch (25 mm).
