Fiber Optic Distribution Solution for Flood-Prone Environments
An innovative, patented solution designed for installing fiber optic distribution boxes in underground vaults subject to groundwater and rainwater accumulation.
Suitable for greenfield and brownfield projects, with integration considered during infrastructure design.
Design Features
Welded stainless steel dome, with a sealed top and walls and a downward-facing bottom opening.
Trapped-air chamber based on Boyle’s law, which prevents water from rising inside the dome.
90° pivoting opening for easy access to the boxes during installation and maintenance.
Stainless steel frame with diagonal bracing to support and secure the assembly.
Capacity for two fiber optic distribution boxes measuring 40 × 26 × 7 cm each, mounted to the underside of the top panel.
Nominal dome dimensions: 80 × 56 × 40 cm, for assessing fit within the vault.
Customer Benefits
Additional protection against direct contact with accumulated water through an air barrier.
Passive operation, requiring no electricity or pumping to create the air chamber.
Simplified installation and maintenance access through the dome’s pivoting motion, bringing the boxes into a convenient working position.
Two boxes organized on a single support, each in a defined location within the protected space.
Integration into new or existing infrastructure.
Eliminates the need for interventions related to water exposure.
