Fiber Optic Splice Closure is used to protect fiber optic junctions and branch points. Below are some common installation requirements for FOSCs:

1. It is usually installed in outdoor environments and therefore requires that elements such as fiber protection, waterproofing, and dustproofing be considered when selecting an installation location. The installation location should be chosen to avoid exposure to direct sunlight and reduce the impact of UV rays on Fiber Optic Splice Closure.

2. Installation height: It should be installed at a height that is easy to operate and maintain in order to facilitate its management and overhaul. It is generally recommended that the FOSC be installed at a height of 1.5 meters to 2 meters above the ground to ensure easy operation and maintenance.

3. Sealing performance: The sealing performance of the FOSC is an important factor in ensuring that the fiber optic cable connection points and branch points are not affected by moisture, dust and other external environment. When installing, you should ensure that the seals and sealing interfaces are properly installed to maintain good sealing performance.

4. With multiple fiber optic cable entrances and exits, fiber optic cable introduction and egress is required. During installation, proper introduction and fixing of fiber optic cables should be ensured as needed to avoid excessive bending or stretching of fiber optic cables.

5. The connection point used to protect the optical fiber requires a solid and reliable optical fiber connection. During installation, attention should be paid to the proper connection and fixing of optical fibers, using appropriate connectors and fixing devices to avoid movement or damage of optical fibers.

6. To facilitate management and maintenance, it is recommended that the FOSC be labeled and recorded. Labels or record forms can be used to mark the location, number, color and other information of the fiber optic connections for quick location and identification when needed.
