R&M Redefines Access Network Connectivity with Modular, Cost-Effective ZOONA Splice Closure Series

Sheridan, Wyoming – June 27, 2024 – In a move set to revolutionize the telecommunications industry, R&M, a globally recognized leader in fiber optic and copper cabling solutions, today unveiled its groundbreaking ZOONA Access Splice closure series. Designed to address the ever-growing demands of modern connectivity, ZOONA closures introduce a new era of modularity, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness for network operators seeking to expand and optimize their infrastructure.

"The launch of ZOONA signifies a monumental shift in the way we approach access network technology," stated [Spokesperson Name], [Spokesperson Title] at R&M. "By seamlessly integrating modularity, intuitive cable sealing mechanisms, and a design philosophy centered on cost efficiency, we are empowering network operators with an unparalleled toolkit to accelerate deployments, minimize expenses, and ensure the longevity of their infrastructure investments."

ZOONA's modular architecture enables seamless adaptability to diverse expansion and access scenarios, eliminating the need for costly and time-consuming reworks during network upgrades. This adaptability translates to significant operational efficiencies and cost reductions throughout the network lifecycle. The innovative QIKseal cable sealing technology further streamlines deployment by facilitating rapid and secure cable retrofitting without the need for specialized tools or expertise.

The ZOONA series encompasses a comprehensive range of solutions tailored to meet specific network requirements:

  • ZOONA STP4: A compact and mechanically sealed closure, the STP4 is specifically designed for space-constrained environments, making it an ideal choice for installations in congested areas. This compact powerhouse can accommodate up to 24 individual cable drops, ensuring optimal utilization of available space.
  • ZOONA STP4 PreCon (IP68): Accelerating the deployment of Fiber-to-the-x (FTTx) networks, the STP4 PreCon boasts pre-configured options, waterproof connectors, and a plug-and-play design. This not only simplifies installations but also enhances the reliability and resilience of networks, particularly in challenging outdoor conditions.
  • ZOONA STP12: Engineered for larger-scale access networks, the STP12 is a robust closure capable of housing an impressive 144 splices. Whether deployed in manholes or on poles, this versatile solution caters to the demands of extensive networks requiring substantial capacity and flexibility.
  • FMTS 30 Fiber Management System: This innovative system streamlines fiber storage within a compact footprint while ensuring a safe bending radius for optimal fiber performance. The 90° locking function of the trays simplifies access for splicing and maintenance activities, contributing to enhanced operational efficiency.

To further enhance the versatility of ZOONA closures, R&M offers a wide array of brackets and accessories for installation in diverse environments. This ensures that network operators can seamlessly integrate ZOONA solutions into their existing infrastructure or deploy them in new environments with minimal effort.

R&M's unwavering commitment to sustainability is evident in the design and manufacturing of ZOONA closures. By prioritizing eco-friendly materials and processes, R&M ensures that its solutions not only deliver exceptional performance but also contribute to a greener and more sustainable future.

With the introduction of the ZOONA series, R&M is poised to redefine the landscape of access network connectivity.By providing network operators with an unprecedented level of flexibility, efficiency, and reliability, R&M is empowering the telecommunications industry to embrace the future of connectivity with confidence.
