Pre- terminated Fibre Optic Cable Assemblies

Pre-terminated fibre optic cable assemblies present an efficient and effective cable deployment option for any size of fibre optic network. High precision factory terminations, coupled with exceptional quality cable in a range of constructions and styles and fully factory tested terminations ensure peace of mind and rapid deployment.

•                              Compact multifibre terminations available up to 144 fibres •                              Low losses due to quality factory terminations and premium connectors •                              Rapid deployment time with pre-connectorised assemblies - simply plug and play •                              Compact size breakout units improve space management in high density applications •                              A variety of cable constructions available including loose-tube, tight buffered riser, round mini & ribbon •                              Available termination options include a range of simplex, duplex and multifibre connectors •                              Optional integrated connector sheath limits potential damage during hauling and installation •                              Eliminates the need for splicing equipment

Applications

•                              Data Centre, SAN & Enterprise networks

•                              Campus & site networks

•                              Remote locations including mine sites & drilling fields

•                              Dangerous environments where splicing equipment is restricted

•                              Installations requiring rapid turnaround

•                              Plug and play networks
