FasTerm ™ CONNECTOR SOLUTIONS Connectors that can be put on in the field using anaerobic epoxy • No heat cure requiring curing ovens • No need to mix epoxies • Takes less than 3 minutes to install • Available in ‘tool’ kits • Multimode offers SC Connectors • Singlemode offers SC & FC connectors IN-LINE ATTENUATOR SOLUTIONS Purpose is to increase the attenuation or return loss if there’s too much signal for the receiver, typically installed in-line between the connector and adapter on the ODF. • SC connectors available in angled polish and ultra polish (-65 and -55dB min. return loss) • FC connectors available in ultra polish (-55 dB min. return loss) • LC connectors available in ultra polish (-55 dB min. return loss) ADAPTER SOLUTIONS Purpose is to allow mating of one connector to another, colored for identification purposes to maintain distinct differences between different style connectors (Green=Angled Polish, Blue=Ultra Polish, Putty=Multimode, Aqua=10G) • Singlemode adapters offered with both Phosphor Bronze sleeves and Zirconia sleeves for high performance • Multimode adapters available with Phosphor Bronze sleeve only • Simplex and Duplex Adapters are also available Notes for FC adapters: The Angle Polished FC adapter has a narrower key width than the singlemode or the multimode adapter. This prevents a singlemode or multimode connector from being inserted into the adapter. The color of the angled retainer differentiates a singlemode from a multimode adapter.
