The OptiCam® ST Fiber Optic Connector is a multimode 62.5/125µm OM1 fiber connector, intended for 900-micron tight-buffered fiber installation. Field termination can be done in about two minutes using the OptiCam 2 Termination Tool. The pre-polished fiber endface eliminates time-consuming field polishing, reducing installation costs. The ST connector has a natural-colored body and backbone, and beige-colored 900µm boot.
- Mechanical cable retention : Consistently provides higher than industry standard cable retention; requires no adhesive, speeding installation
- Translucent housing assembly : Facilitates inspection of the fiber termination quality; results in rapid installations, improved termination yields, and lower installed costs
- Dual cam design with fiber and buffer clamps : Secures both the fiber and the buffer during the camming step to facilitate consistent termination results; reduces the termination time compared to conventional termination methods. Allows up to two re-terminations to achieve optimum termination results; reduces the number of rejected connectors and terminations to provide yield rates approaching 100% for lower installed costs
- Factory pre-polished fiber stub endface : Eliminates inconsistent and time-consuming field polishing to deliver required optical performance; reduces termination time (less than half the time of field polish connectors) and the number of installation tools required
