FuseConnect™ for MPO
FuseConnect™ for MPO is factory pre-polished and could be terminated easily. Similar to the conventional single-core type of Fuse Connector in the field.
FuseConnect™ MPO
FuseConnect™ MPO splice-on, field-installable connectors are uniquely designed and feature just six
components. The innovative factory pre-polished ferrule allows for a field-termination process that eliminates
the need for polishing, adhesives and crimping in the field and minimizes the potential for operator error and
expensive connector scrap. FuseConnect™ MPO is part of the FuseConnect™ splice-on connector family
which includes SC and LC style connectors.
The connector is designed for use with the RT-02 ribbonizing tool which does not require ribbonizing glue
resulting in a cleaner termination process.
FuseConnect™ MPO performs as an equivalent to the standard factory terminated MPO/MTP™ assemblies.
Designed to utilize standard ribbon, Spider Web Ribbon™, or loose tube cable, this connector helps
minimize the complexity involved in the termination of a multi-fiber connection, allowing for a reliable and
repeatable termination in field applications. Fujikura offers a tool kit as well as a variety of accessories
designed to meet all your installation needs for your FuseConnect™ MPO application.
