Optical fibre transfer manhole

The Langmatz optical fibre transfer manhole EK437 is the ideal solution for a reliable and future-proof optical fibre
infrastructure. Thanks to its compact dimensions, the manhole fits ideally into new and existing infrastructures. Despite its
light weight, the manhole impresses with its excellent stability and load-bearing capacity, thanks to its innovative
3D ribFrame® technology. Access outside the building also simplifies maintenance and service, without adversely
affecting the interior. Combined with the optical fibre transfer manhole retrofit kit, the manhole provides for fast and
efficient installation. The diving-bell cabinet of the retrofit kit reliably protects the optical fibre connections from
groundwater, ensuring that the technology remains secure under difficult conditions as well.

Benefits

  • Low inherent weight: the manhole is made of high-grade polycarbonate, simplifying transport and installation
  • Excellent stability and load-bearing capacity: thanks to its 3D ribFrame® technology, the manhole is extremely robust and durable
  • Modular design: flexibility due to different sizes and equipment versions to fit diverse applications
  • Ease of use: no heavy lifting equipment is needed, saving time and money

Special features

  • The modified polycarbonate material used makes it especially robust and durable
  • Predetermined breaking points on the ends and long sides allow different pipe diameters to be connected, including DN110, Ø 50 mm, Ø 14 mm and Ø 10 mm
  • Wide selection and integration of different locking systems
  • Access outside the building: simplifies maintenance and service without adversely affecting the interior

Retrofit kit for optical fibre transfer manhole for EK437

The diving-bell cabinet of the retrofit kit reliably protects the optical fibre connections from water. Simple installation of up to 48 splice connections is possible due to the splice unit with its divided work areas, with the possibility of strain relief for cables, and built-in fibre tray.

Benefits of the diving-bell cabinet

  • Diving-bell cabinet principle to protect against the ingress of water
  • Easy to install directly on the manhole cover
  • Secure mounting of the splice unit
  • Subsequent installation in the EK437 manhole is also possible

Benefits of the splice unit

  • Capacity for 48x heat shrink splice protectors
  • Optimum organisation, thanks to divided work areas
  • Possibility of strain relief for cables
  • Built-in fibre tray

Special features

  • Transfer point at the boundary of the property by combining the EK437 optical fibre transfer manhole and retrofit kit
  • Reduced maintenance and service workload due to the ease of access outside of the building
  • Diving-bell cabinet: Guarantees lasting protection from the ingress of water
  • Splice unit: Provides for fast and efficient installation
