for fiber optic cables.

 Installation on cut and uncut cables.

 Each size with not less than six pre-manufactured cables entries for 6 cables, each
cable entry can be used for up to 4 cables of small diameters using a special multi-
entry kit.

 Possibility for flash-testing and external grounding.

 Sealing of cable entrances are independent from half shell sealing.

 Re-opening and re-closing of the shells without need of re-entry kit.

 Easy installation without special tools.

 Closure can be positioned in any direction for inline closure.

 Installation instruction in both Arabic and English are required as an additional guide
to the professional installer.
