OptiSnap® Connector, SC Single-mode (OS2) APC
With proven field -installable connector technology, fibre terminations using
the OptiSnap® connector system are fast, easy and reliable. Corning high
-precision mechan-ical splice technology enables fibre optic networks to be
installed quickly and cost effectively.
The Corning go/no -go feedback signal allows the installer to verify that the
installation is performed right the first time, every time. Insert the fibre,
activate the cam and watch the pass/fail light illuminate, instilling
confidence in every connector installed.
The factory -polished ceramic ferrule provides superior quality for end -face
geometry. The single -mode OptiSnap® Connector is available in an ultra
physical contact (UPC) polish or an angled physical contact (APC) polish (SC
only), offering you a higher grade of perfor-mance for your field
terminations. With fast installation time and low insertion loss, the OptiSnap
Connector system provides a good alternative to fusion splicing. Installation
is as easy as strip, clean, cleave, cam and crimp.
