Fiber Optic Mechanical Splice: ULTIMODE FAST-MS1 [5 pcs.]

View of the packaging

Distinguishing features:

Mechanical splices ULTIMODE FAST-MS1 are used for permanent connections of optical fibers without the need of employing fusion splicers. Low loss at the level of 0.1 dB is obtained thanks to advanced positioning of the fiber end faces by V-shaped grooves. The optical gel that is also used in the mechanical splice reduces the effects of imprecise cuts and a possible gap between the end faces.

The versatile design is used for splicing optical fibers with buffer coating diameters of 250 um (micrometers or microns) and 900 um, providing high performance connections of multimode and single-mode fibers.

Mechanical splices are suitable for connecting optical lines in similar cases like fusion splices, e.g. to connect pigtails in distribution boxes, repair damaged optical cables etc.

ULTIMODE FAST-MS1 is now probably the fastest installed mechanical splice on the market. The whole procedure takes about 60 seconds.
