The FOX Splice on Connector (SOC) is a Field-Installable Connector that is fusion spliced to the end of the cable. The factory pre-polished ferrule eliminates the need for polishing, adhesives, index matching gels, and crimping in the field. Using a fusion splicer to terminate the connector in the field provides a very reliable connection and minimizes the potential for operator error and expensive connector scrap. It also addresses return loss concerns associated with other field Connectorization methods. This advanced process yields true APC performance LC/APC configuration, and is compliant to GR-326-CORE. Splice on Connectors are compatible with most fusion splicer’s that use fiber holder-based fusion splicing platforms.
