End to End Fibre Network Solutions

HellermannTyton provides a complete end to end range of Fibre to the X (FTTX) solutions, delivering flexible fibre connectivity across every stage of the last mile network. The comprehensive range of street cabinets, fibre splice closures, MDU enclosures, customer connection points and wall outlets, delivering fibre to the home in both underground or over-ground (aerial) applications. The FTTX last mile product range from HellermannTyton offers quality connectivity at every stage of the network from the central

Inside the building there is the new MDU series which currently offers 3 different enclosures; the S5 being the largest presenting up to 432 managed fibre splices, down to the S1 with 8 dedicated customer fibre connections. Looking at individual properties you then have the CCE or the CCP which takes the fibre from outside the property or house inside and connecting to the FWO which then takes the fibre to the router or other active hardware. Outside the building there is also a range of IP rated enclosures that manage fibre from the

There is no set design for a fibre network which means different operators have very different fibre requirements at the various stages of the network. HellermannTyton have committed a large amount of research and resource into developing a range of products that offer the best fibre connectivity at each of these stages.

The MDC connector is a very small form factor two-fibre connector manufactured with proven 1.25mm ferrule technology used in industry standard LC connectors. Three port MDC adapters fit directly into the standard panel opening for duplex LC connectors, increasing fibre density by a factor of three. Supporting port breakout architectures for emerging transceiver MSAs, this smaller size will allow a single array

transceiver to accept multiple MDC patch cables which are individually accessible directly at the transceiver interface. The new format will support four individual MDC cables in a QSFP footprint and two individual MDC cables in an SFP footprint. Insertion and extraction of the MDC connector occurs with a simple push or pull on a flexible and robust strain relief boot. The unique boot design allows for functional density in very tight spaces. For faster error

allow for insertion and removal of multiple MDC connectors at once. Polarity of MDC connectors is effortlessly changed in the field or factory to support multiple cabling methodologies without the need for tools and without exposing or twisting delicate fibres. The MDC connector is designed for optimal stability exceeding the requirements Telcordia GR-326 for carrier or data centre applications. Please visit US Conec in Booth
