Splice-On Connectors Characteristics
In the FTTH projects installation or deployment, the mechanical fast connectors are widely used, if considering the stability and durability, splice-on connectors or holt melt connectors is another option for higher performance and reliability without crimping, polishing and with minor installation errors based on integration with fusion splicing machine.
Features and Benefits of splice-on connectors:
–Low insertion loss under 0.2dB with splicing machine to fusion with fusion point in the boot to have good protection stable performance, suitable for efficient and stable long time usage
–Splice on connectors can splice with 3.0mm, 2.0mm, 0.9mm or FTTH cable directly
–Optical performance is without affection from the environment during usage, low down the maintenance cost. compared with the mechanical fast connectors, it saves the cost on V groove version fast connector repair and installation cost.
–Easy operation, fast installation, superior quality at low cost for site installation. simple structure allows 90s splicing, eliminates fiber bending or break by pulling force or pressure.
–Flexible installation by running exact length channel to eliminate cable shorts and excess slack
–Enchance tensile strength and eliminating the splicing trays and splicing closures
Splice-on connectors or holt melt fast connector are using the splicing machine to realize the connection, basically has no much difference from standard splicing and has its pros and cons.
Fiber Zip Technology providing various version fast connectors including mechanical fast connector/field installable connector and splice-on connectors for FTTH network deployment.
