FITEL's new Splice-On Connector termination system allows for easy termination and flexibility in the field. The “splice-on” connector (SOC) eliminates the need for field polishing and significantly improves the quality of the termination and installation time required. The connector is easily assembled by using a process that requires minimal skill or training. These connectors are optimal for use in FTTx application. Both UPC and APC polishing are available for single-mode fiber.

EZ!Fuse Splice On Connector is compatible with the FITEL Fusion Splicers models Ninja, S179, S178 and the EZ-Terminator™.

Features and Benefits

 N/A
  • Simple, Fast, & Consistent Field Termination:
    Allows for easy field installation of EZ-Bend® cables, pre-terminated splitters, fan outs, and drop terminals
  • No Polishing or Epoxy:
    OFS’s connector termination process requires no polishing or epoxy increasing the quality and consistency of field connector termination. Total installation time is greatly reduced compared to traditional methods
  • Fiber Management:
    The most difficult task for splicer operators has always been managing the fiber upon completion of splicing. The connector termination feature eliminates the need for splice trays resulting in easier fiber management, reduced storage requirements, and faster installation times
