Abstract
Disclosed is a fiber optic splice protection device, comprising: a closure including a cover and a chassis; and at least one cable fixer for fixing cables to be spliced to the chassis of the closure. Wherein the cable fixer is a separate member separated from the chassis, and is removably mounted in the chassis of the closure; and all strength members of the cables to be spliced are previously fixed to the cable fixer before the cable fixer is mounted to the chassis of the closure. Therefore, it is possible that strength members of the cables to be spliced are once time secured to the chassis of the closure of the fiber optic splice protection device, so as to easy to implement rapid on-site installation. Further, the fiber optic splice protection device has higher mechanical strength.
