General Product Information

CommScope’s Mini-OTE 200 closure is a gel sealed fiber optic enclosure designed for splicing, termination and pass-through cable requirements in 
fiber-to-the-X (FFTx) architectures.
The closure is available in 4,6, and 8 port versions DLX  and 4 and 6 port versions full size hardened adapters; the housing is available in 2 colors, 
black and gray.
The terminal is designed for use in wall, pole or handhole applications.
The closure has a maximum capacity of 24 splices, 2 trays of 12 splices each and contains an additional tray for fiber storage. The terminal housing 
provides loop storage for microsheath or loose tube cable.
The Mini-OTE 200 allows for butt configurations with 4 wrap-around ports for multiple combinations of looped feeder cable (Ø 4 - 15 mm) and 
branch-off cable (Ø 4 - 9 mm) where the feeder cables are positioned at the outside ports and the branch-off cables at the inside ports. TENIO 
cable attachment is included as well as an external cable fixation integrated on the housing to absorb external forces on the cable.

1.2
