Overview
The Corning FuseLite® 2 Field-Installable SC/UPC 900µm Single Mode Splice-On Connectors provide a reliable fusion-spliced termination for fiber optic networks. These connectors feature a factory-polished end face and are engineered with internal splice protection within the connector body, eliminating the need for separate splice trays. They are designed for consistent optical performance in reflectance-sensitive applications.
Engineered for speed and efficiency, these field-installable connectors offer a streamlined installation process suitable for various networking environments. They operate reliably across a wide temperature range, ensuring long-term connectivity in diverse conditions. The connectors utilize a standard blue composite housing and are fully compliant with RoHS standards.
