The FuseLite® Termination System, terminates optical fibers by fusion
splicing to a prestubbed, factory-polished connector. This innovative
combination of connector and fusion splicing technology provides a fast,
user-friendly solution for high-performance optical fiber termination. The
FuseLite Connector is a “near-zero-length” pigtail allowing field installation
by fusion splicing to the field fiber within the physical boundaries of the
connector. The stub fiber installed in the FuseLite Connector is polished in the
factory, which eliminates the need for field polishing, increases the quality of
the termination, and greatly reduces connector installation time. Single-mode
connector options are FC, ST® Compatible, and SC, as well as angled FC and
angled SC.
