Splice trays: organizing and protecting fiber
A splice tray brings fibers, service loops and splice protectors together in an organized space.
What the image shows
The infographic presents an open tray with fibers routed around its perimeter and splice protectors secured in the center. Callouts identify cable entries, splice holders and stored fiber.
Why organization matters
A clear layout helps identify connections and work on one fiber without unnecessarily moving the others. Store slack without trapping fibers at crossings or applying pressure when closing the tray.
What to inspect
Cable strain relief and splice protection serve different purposes. Check both, identify the circuits and follow the routing and limits specified by the tray and cable manufacturers.
