1 Introduction
The generic closure FIST-GCO is the environmentally sealed enclosure for the fiber management system that
provides the functions of splicing and passive component integration in the external network. The product can
be tailored to almost any required configuration by adding splicing and/or passive device Sub-Assemblies. The
FIST-GCO has provision for all cable termination and sealing requirements.
To clean FIST components, the use of isopropylalcohol is recommended.
The closure is a single-ended design made of a thermoplastic material.
The base and dome are sealed with a clamp and an O-ring system. One oval entry port for looped (uncut) cable
management and six or sixteen round ports for single cable entry/exit are included in the base. The cable seals
are manufactured from heat-shrinkable material. The Universal Mounting System provides the foundation for
mounting SOSAs and SASAs back to back. The two back to back sides have each a standard capacity of
28, 42 or 58 units. Uncut loose buffer tube storage is available between the two UMS-sides (Universal Mounting
System). Storage of uncut looped ribbons or fibers from central core (or slotted core) cables is available with the
fiber storage basket. Storage of uncut looped ribbons or fibers can be done in individual FIST-trays.

Remove the dome and the O-ring Remark: take care with the O-ring and the sealing surfaces on the base and dome (avoid damaging). - Page 5 4.1.10 Take the oval sleeve and place the packing bag that has been opened on both sides in the oval sleeve to prevent the hotmelt inside the sleeve from dirt and grease. Take the LCIT and bend the loose tubes gently over it. Push the loose tubes in the sleeve. The non-coated edge of the sleeve and the arrows should be pointed to the base of the closure.

4.1.19 - If the fibers are ‘twist free’ one can route the fibers separate to single circuit trays or single element trays. Separate all fiber loops first till the tubeholder. If the fibers are not ‘twist free’ select first the fiber(s) that have to be spliced and cut these fibers in the middle of the loop. - Page 8 4.1.25 Push the loose tubes in the port and fix the strength member in the strength member connector. Be sure that all loose tubes are routed without crossing around the strength member. 4.1f Drop cable preparation (16 port base) 4.1.26 Remove the cable jacket for 2.2m. 4.1.28 Fix the strength member connector in the closure.

4.2c Mass storage facility and twisted fibers: Using Basket 4.2.14 A large ST is wrapped around the twisted fiber bundle and (single fiber, ribbon and compact cable sheet) fixed in the loop bracket in the oval port. The length of the large ST is given for each application.: 16 cm for loopbracket cc. - Page 12 4.2.19 The fibers that need to be guided to the routing block are wrapped with a small ST with a length of 37 cm. Make sure you group the fibers/ribbon going to the OS1 or ES2-side of a closure separately. Place as many fibers as possible fibers together in one ST to maintain a high drop out capacity of your basket (see table below).

Fiber routing S2 side S1 side To E or O side Fibers can be routed between OS1, OS2, ES1 and ES2. In case that fibers have to be routed from SIDE-O (Odd portnumbers) to SIDE-E (Even portnumbers), use the window (see picture). - Page 20 16 PORT BASE: Ports (1+3+5+11+13), (2+4+6+12+14) for cables to 6.3 To remove push the two snapfits at S2 UMS-profile and slide the (S2). Ports (5+7+9+15+17), (6+8+10+16+18) for cables to (S1). Verify wraparound plate towards S1 UMS-profile. the position of two cables if they are placed on the same side (next to each other) because the total amount of loose tubes in ports going to one tubeholder can never be more than mentioned in the capacity of the tubeholder.
- Page 21 To remove the tray put the fiber guiding pin between lip on wraparound groove plate and tray and move lateral towards S1. Route the fiber in the grooves of the wraparound groove plates to the entrance of the identified tray. Fiber must be routed in the groove below the hinge of the tray! 6.6 Pull gently on the fibers in the tray and make sure that the fibers are well contained in the routing block and wraparound groove plate.
