Ortronics M4SAD12-09S1A1 Fiber Splice Cassette 12-fiber OS2

Product Description

The ORTRONICS M4SAD12-09S1A1 is a 12-fiber splice cassette designed for use in M4 modular fiber enclosure systems. It accommodates OS2 single-mode fiber with duplex SC/APC (angled physical contact) adapter ports and is built to house fusion or mechanical splices in an organized, compact tray format. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors install this cassette when building or expanding structured fiber infrastructure in commercial and enterprise environments. The modular cassette format allows splice management to be handled at the enclosure level, reducing clutter and simplifying future moves, adds, or changes.

This cassette is suited for backbone and horizontal single-mode fiber runs in commercial buildings, data centers, and campus network deployments. It slides into compatible M4 enclosures and panels, providing a clean termination and splice point for OS2 single-mode cabling. Applications include inter-floor vertical risers, data center interconnects, and long-run horizontal distribution where OS2 fiber is the specified medium. Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage technicians or structured cabling contractors following BICSI and TIA-568 standards.

Key Features

• 12-fiber capacity in a single modular cassette form factor
• OS2 single-mode fiber compatibility for long-distance, low-attenuation applications
• Duplex SC/APC adapter ports for angled physical contact terminations
• Designed for use with M4 modular fiber enclosure platforms
• Supports fusion or mechanical splice management within the cassette tray
• Sold as a single unit (each)

Compatibility

Designed for installation in M4-series modular fiber enclosures and panels that accept standard splice cassette modules.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician or structured cabling contractor. Power down or disable any active transceivers on connected fiber circuits before handling splices or cassettes. Follow TIA-568 and BICSI TDMM guidelines for fiber bend radius, splice loss budgets, and enclosure management. Do not force the cassette into the enclosure slot; verify M4 platform compatibility before seating.
