Optimax Field Installable Connector

The Optimax Connectors are reliable field installable optical fiber connectors that are easy to install.

They do not require epoxy, curing or polishing. Their unique design incorporates a factory polished

fiber stub in a splice mechanism which provides a fast, secure, and reliable termination on optical fiber

cables. All critical steps are performed in the factory, ensuring a superior-quality connection every time.

Only simple tools are required for installation, making Optimax a cost effective field termination.

Optimax Connectors are high-quality LC, SC and ST Compatible connectors that use a ceramic ferrule with

a physical contact (PC) polish for Multimode and super physical contact (SPC) polish for Single-mode

that ensures the best possible mating of optical fibers. Connectors are available for 62.5 or 50/125 µm

Multimode fiber and Single-mode fiber installations.

Optimax Installation Tool Kit

The Optimax Installation Tool Kit is packaged in a small convenient carrying case and includes an

Optimax LC, SC and ST Compatible installation and training video, installation instructions and all the

tools required to terminate 900 µm buffered optical fiber and jacketed optical fiber.

The Optimax Installation Tool Kit has all the tools and supplies required to install both the Optimax LC,

SC or ST Compatible Multimode and Single-mode connectors. Certain tool kit items can be purchased

separately to accommodate installers already possessing basic optical fiber installation tools.
