The Field Assembly Fast Connector is a type of field-installable connector that is pre-polished and designed to allow fast and simple single fiber field termination. It eliminates the need for time-consuming adhesives or polishing with its pre-polished ferrule and a mechanical splice found inside the body of the connector.
The Field Assembly Fast Connector is also known as a fiber optic quick connector. It is designed for simple and fast field termination of single fibers. The connector is small and easy to use, making it ideal for connecting and disconnecting fibers. It provides an easy and efficient solution for terminating single-mode or multimode optical fibers without the need for field polishing.
The Field Assembly Fast Connector has several features that make it an attractive option for field technicians. Firstly, It can be installed in less than two minutes, regardless of the technician’s level of expertise. Secondly, it does not require any special tools, epoxy, fiber polishing, or fusion splicer. Thirdly, it ensures low insertion loss with its precision mechanical alignment. Fourthly, it offers high optical performance with its molded v-groove technologies. Lastly, it is available in different connector types (such as SC, LC, and FC) and can accommodate various simplex cable diameters (0.9mm, 2.0mm, and 3.0mm).
