AFL has introduced the TITAN RTD FTTx system, a pre-terminated cabling system that allows for quick and easy subscriber connections anywhere in the outside plant (OSP) network.
The unique product set features AFL TRIDENT hardened fibre-optic connectors and TITAN RTD multiport fibre terminals. The sealed and rugged design of both products provides long-term reliability and allows the products to be placed anywhere in the network – underground, in pedestals, on poles, or on aerial strand or ADSS cables.
The quarter-turn latching and sealing mechanism of the TRIDENT connector provides plug-and-play connections to TITAN RTD multiport terminals, enabling lighting fast service subscriber connections with outstanding long term reliability.
‘With FTTx subscriptions rising at an exponential rate, customers are seeing the value in pre-connectorised solutions to enable quicker deployments at the customer premise,’ said Will Miller, product line manager of OSP Connectivity at AFL.
The environmentally hardened nature of the product should prove to be a particularly attractive feature, as it helps to speed up deployment, he says. ‘Customers no longer need to worry about accessing environmentally sealed or weathertight closures to connect their subscribers. TITAN ultimately improves network reliability and increases speed of deployment,’ Miller added.
AFL has developed a detailed product guide to help customers choose the best products for their requirements. These products detailed include not only the new AFL TITAN RTD FTTx system, but also a full line of fibre distribution cabinets, closures, demarcation enclosures, field installable connectors and more.
