HARDENED HYBRID OPTICAL CONNECTOR – TW
Product information
Description
Opened the precedent for on-site installation of selectable fiber optic connectors
TW Hybrid connector combines T and W outdoor harsh environment connectors together. It can mate with Corning OptiTap™ adapter and Huawei Mini SC adapter. TW hardened hybrid optical connector makes change different connecting method in field possible. TW cable assemblies provide the most cost-effective method of deploying optical fiber in outside plant distribution networks at speeds significantly fast than traditional field installations.
The connector guarantees an easy, one-step connection system with the combined push-pull insertion and nut-style mechanical latch. It provides quick installation solutions and has good performance on mating with Corning OptiTap™ adapter and Huawei mini SC adapter. Cable can be 5.0mm round and Fig.8 drop type.
The relationship between TW and STW fiber optic connectors
Firstly, the design structures of these two types of fiber optic connectors can achieve on-site matching with different mainstream fiber optic adapters. Secondly, they are all hardened fiber optic connectors. Thirdly, TW Connector’s design is earlier than STW Connector’s, STW Connector’s design is an upgraded and improved version of TW’s.
