Description
Stap (SC, LC, MPO) cable assemblies provide the most cost-effective method of deploying optical fiber in outside-plant distribution networks at speeds significantly faster than traditional field installations. The assemblies guarantee an easy, one-step connection system with a combined push-pull insertion and nut-style mechanical latch.
The Stap (SC, LC, MPO) cable assembly delivers quick installation and has good mating performance with the matching Stap (SC, LC, MPO) adapter. Cable can be armored or non-armored. The connector utilizes optical fiber cables on which network access points are pre-installed at customer-specified locations along the length of the cable.
