AFL: Apex X-1

Feb. 26, 2025
AFL’s Apex X-1 is a compact sealed dome splice closure that supports 144 single fusion, 432 mass fusion with standard ribbon, or 864 mass fusion with “rollable ribbon” fiber types such as AFL’s SpiderWeb Ribbon® (SWR®).

AFL’s Apex X-1 is a new addition to AFL’s Apex family of sealed splice closures. As a compact sealed dome splice closure, this latest design balances size optimization with exceptional performance, supporting up to 144 single fusion, 432 mass fusion with standard ribbon, or 864 mass fusion with “rollable ribbon” fiber types such as AFL’s SpiderWeb Ribbon® (SWR®). The Apex X-1 is ideal for the local small networks and rural FTTx applications. The X-1 utilizes the same proven technology and design as the Apex X-2, X-2S, X-3, and X-3H; the X-1 offers unique features to reduce installation time, improve organization, and enhance network reliability.
JUDGE'S COMMENT: "This product addresses the density issues in fiber installation. It stands out among its competition."
