The OFS fiber cable family of HCS^® 200 µm fibers, cables and components is compatible with this termination system. Vertical integration takes the OFS fiber cable V-System ™ from fiber through cabling and connectorization while providing strength, durability and ease of use and termination.

Using this kit, the outer cable jacket and fiber buffer can be stripped; a connector ferrule crimped over the fiber and onto the outer cable jacket; and the fiber cleaved at its bare end. The termination requires less than two minutes per end using an easy crimp and cleave process, which produces a high-quality end-face.

The process is completely mechanical, minimizing the impact of user error. Proper termination is easily verified by visible light.
