The FAST Series connectors have a fibre connectorisation time of less than 30 seconds, including preparation. Apart from the standard fibre preparation tools, no other specialised tools are required in conjunction with the connector.
The product has been factory-polished, eliminating the need for any polishing materials, thereby enabling the preparation and termination of two optical fibres in a fraction of the time of other conventional methods.
The connector uses V-groove mechanical splice principals and therefore the use of epoxies is not required. The average insertion loss for singlemode is 0.2 dB, with a return loss of 55 dB, whilst for multimode GI62.5, the average insertion loss is 0.03 dB (0.07 dB for multimode GI50.0).
Using the onsite assembly optical connector, it is possible to improve the flexibility of optical wiring design as well as reducing the time required for wiring work. The FAST-SC connector is becoming popular as a connector for optical wiring inside buildings and floors, and with the expansion of FTTH, it is expected that demand will continue to increase in the future.
