Corning Optitap SC APC Waterproof Fast Connector Pre-terminated Reinforced Fiber optic connector

How to install Corning optitap sc fast connector to ftth cable?

Description

        The Corning OptiTap Waterproof Fast Connector is a pre-connectorized, rugged fiber optic connector specifically designed for quick, reliable, and water-resistant fiber optic connections in outdoor and harsh environments.  OptiTap connectors are popular in Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) applications, cell tower installations, and other deployments that require secure, field-deployable connections.

Key Features

Waterproof and Dustproof: The OptiTap connector includes a robust sealing system that protects the fiber connection from water, dust, and other environmental contaminants, meeting IP68 standards.

Compact size,easy to operate,durable.

Spiral clamping mechanism ensures long-term reliable connection.

Guide mechanism：can be blinded with one hand,simple and quick,connect and install.

Rapid Installation: These connectors are factory pre-terminated, which enables quick plug-and-play installation without requiring additional fiber splicing. This reduces deployment time significantly in field installations.

Rugged Design: The durable, hardened shell protects the fiber connection from physical impact and environmental wear. This feature makes it suitable for outdoor installations exposed to varying weather conditions.

Wide Compatibility: OptiTap connectors work well with Corning's network access points, terminal closures, and other FTTH equipment, making them suitable for a wide range of network designs.Easy connection to hardended adapters on terminals or closures.

Accepts 2.0x3.0mm,3.0mm ,5.0mm Cable Diameters Factory or field installation,Allows flexibilityto use factory terminated and tested assemblies or retrofit to pre-terminated or field installed assemblies. 

Low Insertion Loss: The connectors maintain low insertion loss and high return loss, ensuring high-performance signal transmission over long distances.

Ease of Maintenance: Reduce welding,connect directly to achieve interconnection.Since they are pre-connectorized, the connectors make it easy to replace or maintain connections without affecting the rest of the network.

Common Applications

FTTH Networks: Especially useful in Fiber-to-the-Home and Fiber-to-the-Building (FTTB) networks for secure and quick connections between the network and the end-users.

Waterproof fiber equipment SC port.

Outdoor and Harsh Environments: Widely used in industrial, outdoor, and rural broadband deployments where environmental exposure is a concern.Outdoor communications equipment connection.

5G and Cell Tower Installations: Suitable for quick, efficient connections in cell tower and small cell installations where quick setup and reliable performance are crucial.

Remote wireless base station.

 The Corning OptiTap connector has become a standard for robust, easy-to-deploy fiber optic connections in outdoor and field applications, providing efficiency and reliability while minimizing labor and installation time.
