The factory pre-polished ferrule eliminates the need for polishing, adhesives, index matching gels and crimping in the field. Using a fusion splicer to terminate the connector in the field provides a very reliable connection and minimizes the potential for operator error and expensive connector scrap. It also addresses return loss concerns associated with other field connectorization methods.  This advanced process yields true APC performance for SC/APC and LC/APC configurations and is compliant to GR-326-CORE. Splice on Connectors are compatible with most fusion splicers that use fiber holder-based fusion splicing platforms.  Benefits:  - Connectorization in RF-overlay, Cable TV backbone networks, outside plant, MDU and FTTP cabling - Fiber to the Home (FTTH) - Central office connector replacement - Data center installations - Fiber to the Desk (FTTD)  - Anywhere mechanical splice, polish type connectors or fusion spliced pigtails are used  Features include:  - Simple, fast and consistent field termination - Field installable in less than three minutes - Fiber in connector is stripped and cleaved, ready for splicing - No adhesives, crimping, mechanical splices, index matching gels or polishing - True APC performance for LCA and SCA - SM Compliant to Telcordia GR-326 - MM Compliant to TIA/EIA568C.3 - Compatible with most fusion splicers - Eliminates the need for splice trays and splice panels - EZ Open packaging organizes the parts in the correct order, making it easier for the installer - Reliable splicing process virtually eliminates callbacks for connector problems - Flame Retardant Connector Housings [Click here to learn more about FiberFox.](https://www.accu-tech.com/more-vendors/fiberfox) [Click here to contact your local Accu-Tech representative. ](https://www.accu-tech.com/contact) - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) Topics: [connector](https://www.accu-tech.com/accu-insider/topic/connector) [splicer](https://www.accu-tech.com/accu-insider/topic/splicer) [fiberfox](https://www.accu-tech.com/accu-insider/topic/fiberfox) ### Subscribe To Our Blog ### Additional Information ### About Accu-Tech Accu-Tech is a national distributor of Voice, Data, AV, Wireless, and Security solutions.
