Pre-Polished Fiber Optic Connectors
specifications
SC2 pre-polished fiber optic connectors shall be TIA/EIA-604 FOCIS-3
compliant and contain a factory-terminated fiber, eliminating field
polishing and adhesive. SC2 pre-polished connectors shall have
an average insertion loss of 0.3dB per mated pair for multimode
and singlemode fiber. SC2 2pre-polished connectors shall capture
fiber and buffer in one action allowing for up to two re-terminations
with no degradation in performance.

key features and benefits
SC2 OptiCam
®
Connectors
Factory pre-polished
fiber stub endface
Eliminates inconsistent and time-consuming field polishing to deliver
required optical performance; reduces termination time (less than half
the time of field polish connectors) and the number of installation tools
required
Secures both the fiber and the buffer during the camming step to facilitate
consistent termination results; reduces the termination time compared to
conventional termination methods
Allows up to two re-terminations to achieve optimum termination
results; reduces the number of rejected connectors and terminations
to provide yield rates approaching 100% for lower installed costs
Facilitates inspection of the fiber termination quality; results in rapid
installations, improved termination yields, and lower installed costs
Maintains data transmission under tensile loads for jacketed cable
Consistently provides higher than industry standard cable retention;
requires no adhesive, speeding installation
The OptiCam® 2 Termination Termination Tool is designed to offer certainty
of terminations of OptiCam connectors
Guides the user through the termination process with simple step-by- step
prompts and on-screen visuals. Indicates the field fiber and fiber stub are
in proper alignment before camming
Provides calculated insertion loss value on completion of the camming
process

applications
SC2 fiber optic connectors are widely used in
fiber optic backbone and horizontal applications
for high-speed data transmission. Typical
applications for SC2 OptiCam
®
Connectors
include maintenance or emergency restoration
of fiber networks and retrofit/initial install in both
behind-the-wall (BTW) and in the permanent side
of panelized interconnect and cross-connect.
SC2 OptiCam
®
Connectors eliminate the need for end
face polishing and adhesive providing easier, faster
installation, especially in remote areas and confined
spaces. The hand-held OptiCam
®
2 Termination Tool
gives installers the flexibility to terminate in very
close proximity to the application without having
to switch tools or find benchtop space.
