Optotec S.p.A have released an enhanced version of their FOCUS DOC family of demarcation closures. The second generation DOC2 includes an increase in connectivity capacity; QR codes for accessing relevant documentation, cross-over routing control on the top of the fibre management system and option to include Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) tags to make identification of the correct closure in the field easier.

Whilst the compact CDOC2 incorporates an increase in connectivity capacity; QR codes for accessing relevant documentation and option to include Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) tags to make identification of the correct closure in the field easier. Both DOC2 and CDOC2 support both SC simplex and LC duplex (SC footprint) connectivity and typically the enclosures are provided un-loaded.

RFID is a technology system able to automatically store pre-set data and information on people or objects, which can be accessed when scanned through an RFID scanning device to ensure correct products are being accessed as part of the workflow requirements.

Similarly the introduction of QR code labels for documentation helps reduce usage of paper and allows field engineers, installers and supervisors to access installation & other associated documentation to hand-held devices like a mobile phone, tablet or laptop computer.

Environmentally sealed (IP 68 per IEC 60529) with modular cassette management system enabling splicing and passive optical component integration in outside plant (OSP) fibre optic networks. Obtainable in component form or Daro Connectivity can create kits to match specific customer requirements which can include splice array modules, mounting brackets and splice protectors etc. to enable a complete one-stop supply.

FOCUS DOC2 and FOCUS CDOC closures are a butt cable entry design with the ‘A’ dome and ‘A’ base configurations to ensure a solution to current network requirements can be readily accommodated. Closures can be deployed underground in man-holes, hand-holes or in pole-mount, wall and aerial applications and are available with pressure valve and grounding kit if required.

FOCUS DOC2 is available in one base style; ‘A’ with single oval port and 6 round ports. The FOCUS CDOC2 is also available in one base style; ‘A’ with single oval port and 6 round ports. Bases can accommodate both heat-shrink and cold sealing technology.

Maximum splice capacity of 288 fibres for the FOCUS DOC2 along with capability to support up to 48 SC simplex or LC duplex adaptors. Meanwhile the FOCUS CDOC2 offers a maximum splice capacity of 96 fibres with a capability to support up to 24 SC simplex or LC duplex adaptors. Splice capacity is dependent upon type of SAMX HD splice array modules used.

Fibre splicing and management is controlled by Optotec’s FOCUS SAMX-HD (splice array modules) system which offers various splicing densities and functionality for single fibre, multi-fibre heat-shrink or crimp style splice protection. Please see Splice Array Modules for further details.
