Product Overview
The GL-H16X optical fibre cable distribution box is a wiring line device for user distribution in FTTH systems. It provides physical protection and fibre management for incoming and outgoing fibre cables, and it can be used for cable termination, branching, splicing, cross-connection, and distribution.
In an FTTH ODN network, the box works as a termination node between feeder cable and drop cable. It helps installers organize fibre routing, protect splice points, allocate subscriber circuits, and keep the distribution point accessible for later maintenance.
The product can be used as either an indoor or outdoor fibre distribution enclosure depending on the installation environment. Its compact wall-mounted or pole-mounted structure is suitable for residential FTTH access, small building access, and FTTx project deployment.

Internal Structure and Fibre Routing
The GL-H16X is designed to support organized fibre storage and routing inside the enclosure. Feeder cable and drop cable can be clamped and fixed inside the box, while fibres are routed to the splice tray, adapter plate, or splitter area according to the project configuration.
Adapter Plate Area
The adapter plate helps arrange SC/APC adapter positions for subscriber drop connection and clearer port identification during installation and maintenance.
Stacked Splice Tray
The built-in stacked splice tray can be opened and removed, making it easier for installers to complete fibre splicing, inspection, and later maintenance.
Key Features
Outdoor-Ready Protection
IP67 enclosure design supports outdoor FTTH and FTTx distribution points where dust and moisture protection are required.
16 Core Subscriber Distribution
Supports up to 16 SC/APC positions, making it suitable for small FTTH distribution areas, building access, and subscriber drop cable management.
Wall or Pole Installation
The enclosure can be installed on a wall or fixed to a telecom pole, allowing flexible deployment in different field environments.

Installation Methods
Wall-Mounted Installation
- Mark the mounting hole positions according to the installation size.
- Drill four holes into the wall.
- Insert expansion bolts Φ7.5 × 40.
- Align the box with the holes.
- Fasten the enclosure with suitable bolts.
Pole-Mounted Installation
- Prepare the pole mounting ring or stainless steel band.
- Position the box at a suitable working height.
- Fix the mounting ring to the telecom pole.
- Secure the cable entry direction and bending route.
- Complete cable clamping, sealing, and port labeling.
Cable Management and Field Use Notes
For stable long-term optical performance, the box should be installed with careful cable fixing, fibre routing, port labeling, connector cleaning, and sealing inspection before project handover.
- Keep feeder cable and drop cable fixed before fibre routing.
- Do not bend fibres below the project-specified minimum bend radius.
- Route fibres clearly through the tray and adapter plate to avoid crossing and stress.
- Label adapter ports and drop cable outputs for future maintenance.
- Inspect sealing points after cable entry and before final cover closing.
- Clean and inspect connector end faces before mating.
- Record port allocation and splice information for as-built documentation.
