Waterproof OptiTap SC APC Field Installable reinforced Connector is a type of waterproof& reinforced connector which can be used with 2*3.0mm, 2*5.0mm flat drop cable. Its innovative design enables it to be compatible with Corning’s OptiTap SC without infringing on Huawei’s patents.
This Fast type Hardened OptiTap SC APC Connector includes a conventional FTTH fast connector and a protective cover compatible with Corning’s OptiTap interface. It can achieve quick connection through simple assembly. It is an excellent solution to be compatible with Huawei devices and do not need terminated the connector in laboratory, it can be filed assembled very easily when the Corning connector defects.
This waterproof and durable connector offers a robust design for reliable performance in extreme environmental conditions, making it the perfect choice for FTTA, broadband, and telecom applications. Its compact size, blind-mating mechanism, and ease of installation make it ideal for both new installations and quick field repairs.
