The OptiCam® ST Fiber Optic Connector is a singlemode 9/125µm OS1/OS2 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 blue-colored 900µm boot.
- Calculated Insertion Loss: Provides calculated insertion loss value on completion of the camming process
- LCD Display: Guides the user through the termination process with simple step-by-step prompts and on-screen visuals. Indicates the field fiber and fiber stub are in proper alignment before camming
- Universal termination tool: The OptiCam ™ 2 Termination Tool is designed to offer certainty of termination of Opti-Cam connectors
- Mechanical cable retention: Consistently provides higher than industry standard 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
- 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
- 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
- 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 installation tools required
