Versatile Splice Closure for Rural Broadband

July 30, 2024
Prysmian receives bronze award in the 2024 ISE Network Innovators' Awards program.

There are many good closures on the market today.  However, BEAD projects are creating new requirements for closures. By definition, these projects weren't financially feasible in the past, due to lower densities and different deployment conditions. So, it's no surprise that existing closures are not optimized for this market.

The Eagle closure addresses emerging requirements for Rural Broadband in the following ways:

  • It provides one simple, modular design that can be used in every segment of a rural BB network.
    • Small engineering departments can manage projects without detailed drawings.
    • Inventory management consists of just one base closure and several accessories.
    • Material management on trucks is just as simple—no complicated work orders or lost time from missing parts.
    • Installer training is simplified.
    • Installers can easily adapt to unexpected requirements without returning to the garage for new parts.
    • No wasted parts or stranded inventory due to forecasting errors.
  • It provides splicer-friendly features in a small footprint.
    • Designed and tested by experienced splicers, for splicers.
    • No need to use an oversized closure to ensure productivity.
    • Saves money on storage, shipping, pole loading, handholes and excavation.
