Inside a fiber cabinet, unused splitter tails can quickly become difficult to manage as networks grow.
“With higher fiber-count splitters, the tails often end up sitting at the bottom of the cabinet all coiled up,” says Joe Ascheman, Director of Sales – West U.S. at Precision Group. “When technicians go in there looking for a specific fiber, they’re digging through cables and moving everything around.”
To address the challenge, Precision Group developed the Ruggedized ABS Splitter with Hangar, giving technicians a simple way to keep unused splitter tails organized inside the cabinet.
Why Unused Splitter Tails Create Challenges in Fiber Cabinets
When a fiber splitter is installed, not every fiber tail is used immediately. The remaining fibers stay inside the cabinet until additional subscribers are connected.
As fiber networks scale and higher fiber-count splitters are deployed, cabinets can quickly fill with unused tails waiting to be activated. A 1×64 splitter can leave up to 64 fiber tails inside the cabinet until they are needed.
When technicians return to activate a new subscriber, they may need to move cables around to locate the correct fiber. After repeated visits, those cables may be handled many times, increasing the potential for unnecessary stress on the fibers and making cabinet organization more difficult.
Joe Ascheman explains how the Ruggedized ABS Splitter with Hangar solves a common cabinet issue installers run into as fiber networks scale.
A Simple Solution Built for the Cabinet Environment
The Ruggedized ABS Splitter with Hangar mounts inside the cabinet and provides a structured place to store unused splitter tails.
Instead of sitting in a loose pile at the bottom of the cabinet, fibers can be routed and separated so technicians can quickly identify the one they need.
That means:
- Less time digging through cables
- Cleaner cabinet organization
- Reduced cable handling
- Faster installs when connecting the next subscriber
A simple accessory, the Ruggedized ABS Splitter with Hangar solves a problem technicians deal with every day.
Designed to Work with Precision Group’s Ruggedized ABS Splitters
The Ruggedized ABS Splitter with Hangar is designed specifically for use with Precision Ruggedized ABS splitters.
These splitters have become a popular option for providers looking for a reliable and cost-effective solution for fiber distribution.
Many customers report saving 30 to 50 percent compared to other splitters on the market.As adoption increased, Precision Group began hearing consistent feedback from the field. The splitters were performing well. But, cabinets needed a cleaner way to manage the fiber tails that were not yet in use.
The Ruggedized ABS Splitter with Hangar was developed as a straightforward solution to that challenge.
Who This Is For
The Ruggedized ABS Splitter with Hangar is ideal for:
- Broadband providers deploying FTTH networks
- Technicians working inside fiber cabinets
- Networks using high fiber count splitters
- Operators looking to keep cabinets organized as subscriber counts grow
Any environment where cabinets are accessed repeatedly for new installs can benefit from better fiber management.
Key Features

Made by Installers, for Installers
Like many Precision Group products, the Ruggedized ABS Splitter with Hangar came directly from feedback in the field. Customers liked the performance and pricing of Precision Group’s splitters. But cabinet organization became a growing challenge as networks expanded.
The Ruggedized ABS Splitter with Hangar provides a practical way to manage unused fiber tails without changing the splitter itself. It is a small addition that makes cabinets easier to work in today and easier to maintain as networks continue to grow.
