The fiber optic splice module (FOSM) shall house
and protect fiber optic splices, guarantee proper
fiber cable management and bend radius control,
and allow for clear labeling and logical organization
of the fiber optic splices. The FOSM shall support
24 fusion splices or 12 mechanical splices in one
module and shall be compatible with all Panduit
rack mounted fiber enclosures. Slacking and
spooling shall be self-contained within the FOSM.
The FOSM shall be self-stacking with a hinged
clear cover.

The Panduit fiber optic splice module provides
a flexible system for managing fiber optic
splices. The FOSM is an upgrade component
for all Panduit rack mount fiber enclosures. It is
ideal for splicing OS1, OM1, OM2 and
OM3/OM4 fiber to factory-terminated pigtails
and is suitable for applications where fusion
splicing yields installation time and labor cost
benefits. The FOSM is also suitable for splicing
long-run installations or very high bandwidth
applications that typically require singlemode
fiber. The FOSM delivers fusion splicing
capacity equal to enclosure termination
capacity for greater system flexibility. Integral
cable management, bend radius control, and
slack management features protect fiber optic
cables, pigtails, and splices to ensure 
end-to-end signal integrity for greater network
reliability and lowest cost of ownership.
