In general

This guide shows how to splice cables with pigtails in the DIN closure FPD66. Parts of the installation may be made by FOSS prior to delivery.

This closure may be used for up to 12 splices against pigtails. However; by factory terminated cables or direct termination, the closure may

hold 24 fibres using the LC Quad adapter. If less fibres than a full adapter front is used, the rest of the holes should be blinded using blind

plugs. This guide shows installation with adapters pointing left (if a wall mount bracket is used), but the closure may be used pointing right. In

such a case, think mirrored when reading this manual.

You are advised to read through the full installation guide upon beginning the installation.

Colour codes for cables delivered by FOSS may be found under the QR code/link on the right.
