ADSS/OPGW Metal Junction Box
The ADSS/OPGW Metal Junction Box, also known as a splicing box or Metal Joint Junction Box, is designed to house fiber core splices for outdoor intermediate optical cables. It connects trunk cables like OPGW to patch panels in control rooms. The junction box supports, organizes, and protects optical fibers while ensuring their minimum bending radius is not exceeded. It’s rated IP65 and provides entry for all cables, including number tags for tube and fiber identification.
ADSS/OPGW Metal Junction Boxes come in various models for both tower and pole applications. They’re available with different port configurations and fiber capacities, ranging from 12 à 60 fibers. These boxes are typically made of aluminum alloy and weigh around 4.1 à 4.2 kilos. The ADSS/OPGW Metal Junction Box can be mounted on walls or pedestals at accessible heights, making it versatile for various installation scenarios.
Features of the ADSS/OPGW Metal Junction Box:
• Lockable enclosure for security
• No sharp edges or protrusions to prevent cable damage
• Customizable designs available from manufacturers
• Suitable for aerial, pole mounting, direct burial, and wall mounting
• Available in dome and rectangular shapes
• Resistant to UV rays, températures extrêmes, vent, and rain

Foire aux questions (FAQ)
What are the typical fiber capacities available?
Junction boxes come in various capacities ranging from 24 à 576 fibers. Common configurations include 36, 48, et 60 fiber models for both tower and pole mounting applications, with multiple port options available.
What environmental conditions can the junction box withstand?
The junction box operates in temperatures from -40°C to +65°C, offers resistance to moisture, vibration, and extreme weather conditions. It provides excellent mechanical sealing and can maintain functionality for over 25 années.
How is the junction box installed?
Installation requires mounting on walls, poteaux, or towers at accessible heights. The process includes proper cable routing, splice tray organization, heat-shrink sealing of ports, and securing with appropriate mounting kits based on installation location.
What materials are used in construction?
The junction box is typically made from aluminum alloy for high mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. Internal components include modified PP+GF for the dome and base, ABS for trays, and stainless steel for metal parts.
What accessories come with the junction box?
Standard accessories include splice trays, cable strength member attachment plates, protection tubes, nylon ties, mounting kits, sealing materials, cleaning tissues, desiccant, and necessary hardware for installation and maintenance.
What types of cables can be connected?
The junction box accommodates ADSS (All-Dielectric Self-Supporting) and OPGW (Optical Ground Wire) câbles, with oval and round ports supporting various cable diameters from 6mm to 33mm.
How is cable organization managed inside?
The box features dedicated splice trays with organized routing paths, maintaining a minimum fiber bending radius of 40mm or greater. It includes storage baskets and separate compartments for different cable types and splice arrangements.
