Fiber Splicing Tents

Purpose-built for fiber optic splicing — not general-purpose tents adapted for the job. Each is designed around the specific lighting, cable access, ventilation, and deployment constraints of field splice work, from aerial pedestals to open trenches.

All-Weather Fiber Splicing Tent

6508DRAD-FS

Light-in design for all-season ground splicing — solar-blocking top, translucent sides, three 14″ sleeves for vent hoses, splice cases, or AC. 30″ rear door and interlocking vehicle flaps.

The key decision before you choose a model

Solar Blocking Top, Translucent Sides

Solar Blocking Top, Translucent Sides

Light-In Design

Blocks solar gain and UV through the top while letting natural light in through the sides. Brighter interior — better for extended work when you want ambient light without heat or glare overhead. 

All-Weather Fiber Splicing Tent
Solar Blocking on All Interior Surfaces

Solar Blocking on All Interior Surfaces

Full Blackout Design

Black solar-blocking material lines every interior surface — roof and walls. Creates a dark working environment that eliminates light interference entirely. Mesh windows provide ventilation without letting light through. Required for outdoor work or wherever ambient light would interfere with test equipment.

SolarShade Fiber Splicing Tent

All-Weather Fiber to the Home (FTTH) Tent

6705

Narrows to 2′ wide to reach restricted pedestals and closures, expands to 6×6. Velcro panels wrap and seal around obstacles. Solar-blocking top, translucent sides. Works as a FTTH tent, manhole cover, or compact work tent.
