Uniboot Connector From SENKO

The SN Uniboot from SENKO is a telco-grade connector designed for data centers, which combines four duplex SN connectors

topologies require no conversion between high -fiber-count trunk cables and duplex equipment

ports, eliminating the need for transition cassettes and fanouts, resulting in a lower overall cost.

into a single compact and practical 8-¬fibre connector.

This unique design allows for base-2 equipment connections and base-8 trunk and transceiver connections simultaneously, resulting in a connector that is 40% more compact than legacy LC, but nearly 3 x denser when integrated in patch panels, allowing up to 432 fi¬bers to be presented in 1RU. The SN Uniboot is highly flexible and can be used as a high-density trunk connection, a 4-lane transceiver

design allows service providers to use bulk cable for subscriber drops with field installable connectors while maintaining the highest mechanical and environmental performance required for outside plant performance. M-CHT’s unobtrusive footprint allows it to fit easily into the small spaces that characterize OSP environments, promoting quick, effective build-out of fiber networks. M-CHT deployment translates into enhanced supply chain diversification, simplified inventory management, improved lead times, faster field installation, and significant cost savings. The terminal supports a splice tray and optical splitters as well as other passive components, while its innovative mounting hardware supports pole, wall, strand, and below-ground applications. Its compact clamshell design provides an isolated IP68-rated chamber-and-latch for each individual connection, affording

Honored by Lightwave’s 2023 Innovation Review, Go!Foton’s Midspan Clamshell Hardened Terminal (M-CHT) represents a major advance in optical connectivity management and a completely fresh approach to managing the proliferation of fiber drops in confined spaces for both inside plant and outside plant. By hardening the connection domain rather than the connectors themselves, M-CHT offers hardened fiber terminal functionality using standard fiber drop cables and connectors, delivering hardened connectivity without need for proprietary connectors and liberating network managers and

fast and easy port access and facilitating addition of new subscribers without affecting the service of live users. Available in 4-port and 8-port versions, M-CHT’s versatility makes it the perfect solution for a wide variety of telecommunications

technicians from the hardware restrictions imposed by today’s

dominant connector-centric approaches to termination. The isolated drop chamber
