Specialty Optical Cables

Description
V-Linx™ Terminal Indoor and Outdoor

The V-Linx™ Terminal is a comprehensive, multifunctional 12-port terminal system that combines fiber storage and a hands-free pay-off feature in a single factory-terminated device. The standard input cable for the V-Linx Terminal is a 50 foot (15.24 meter) twelve fiber preterminated drop cable installed at the factory. The drop cables are terminated with multifiber push-on (MPO) connectors providing the interface with the V-Linx Combiner for a collective floor distribution design within a building.

The distribution side of the V-Linx Terminal provides transition to twelve single-fiber SCA adapters allowing individual drops to 12 living units. The V-Linx Terminal features OFS’ bend-optimized AllWave® FLEX ZWP Fiber enabling superior optical performance within the terminal and the integrated cable tether.

The cable spool is integrated on the assembly itself for quick setup and installation in the field. The V-Lix Installation Tool provides all the necessary assistance to allow a single person to install the entire cable between floors.

ST2 Fiber Optic Connectors

Applications

The ST2 connector has been fortified with positive latching to prevent accidental decoupling. Since it’s compatible with existing ST connectors and couplings, you can use it for cable-to-cable, cable-to-equipment, or equipment-toequipment fiber connect
Features and Benefits

Features:

• Nominal fiber OD 125.0 µm
• Cable OD .9 mm BTW
• Insertion loss m, s 0.3 dB, 0.2 dB
• Return loss 44 dB
• Mating durability (insertion loss change after 500 reconnects) < 0.2 dB
• Temperature Stability (-40° C to +75° C)
• Insertion loss change < 0.3 dB
• Tip material zirconia

Benefits:

• Stability – Delivers high quality, dependable performance and prevents momentary disconnect from axial loads
• Space Savings – Connector can be engaged/disengaged using the boot, thus allowing maximum number of connections in a given space
• Reduced Cost – Advanced engineering helps ensure long life, saves replacement costs
• Easy Installation – EZ installation requires no heat curing or field power and the connector connects or disconnects with just a twist of the boot
• Versatility – Compatible with existing ST connectors and adapters
