LGX Splice Cassette
Standard LGX form factor with universal rack compatibility. Fits virtually all major brand enclosures with tool-free snap-in installation for fast, repeatable deployment across multi-vendor environments.
Product Overview
The iFiber Optix LGX Splice Cassette uses the industry-standard LGX form factor, making it compatible with virtually all major brand rack-mount enclosures without adapters or modifications. It's the go-to choice when your infrastructure spans multiple vendors or when you need a universally compatible splice management solution.
Each cassette holds 12 fusion splices using 60 mm heat-shrink protection sleeves, with organized retention channels that keep every splice accessible, labeled, and maintainable. Integrated radius limiters protect fiber from micro-bending across the full -40°C to +70°C operating range.
Tool-free snap-in installation means fast, repeatable deployment. The cassette seats directly into any LGX chassis, locks in place, and is ready for splicing. No special hardware, no compatibility workarounds.
Standard LGX form factor fits all major brand enclosures. No adapters, no vendor lock-in.
Snap-in mounting into any LGX chassis for fast, repeatable deployment across multiple sites.
Organized splice sleeve retention keeps installations labeled and easy to service long-term.

Frequently Asked Questions
LGX is an industry-standard form factor for fiber optic modules and cassettes used in rack-mount enclosures. The standard dimensions mean this cassette fits into LGX-compatible chassis from virtually any manufacturer without adapters or modification. It's the most widely used form factor for fiber management in data center, telecom, and enterprise environments.
Yes. The LGX form factor is an open standard. This cassette is compatible with LGX rack-mount enclosures from all major manufacturers. It snaps directly into any standard LGX chassis slot.
The Corning splice cassette is specifically designed for Corning CCH panel housings and LANscape® systems. The LGX cassette uses the universal LGX form factor, which fits into enclosures from any manufacturer. Both hold 12 splices with 60 mm sleeves. The choice depends on your installed housing type. If you're using Corning CCH infrastructure, go with the Corning cassette. For everything else, the LGX cassette is the universal option.
No. The snap-in mechanism provides a positive, secure lock into the LGX chassis. The cassette sits firmly in its slot and won't shift or dislodge during normal operation, cable movement, or routine maintenance access. "Tool-free" refers to the installation process, not the security of the mount.
