Overview

The Panduit FSCSLT9SOCA9AG fusion splice SC-APC fiber optic connector is a high-precision, pre-polished termination solution designed for OS2 singlemode 9/125µm fiber applications. This connector is engineered for 250µm loose-tube fiber with 900-micron build-up tubing, enabling rapid field termination in approximately two minutes using standard fusion splice machines (not included). The pre-polished endface eliminates the need for time-consuming field polishing, significantly reducing installation labor costs and minimizing human error. The LC connector features a green-colored front assembly for quick visual identification of APC (Angled Physical Contact) polish, paired with a green- and grey-colored rear assembly and boot for ergonomic handling and cable strain relief. Compliant with ISO/IEC 11801, ANSI/TIA-568.3-D, and IA/EIA-604 (FOCIS-3 and FOCIS-10) standards, this connector ensures interoperability with industry-compliant fiber optic systems. It meets RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC requirements, ensuring hazardous substance restrictions are satisfied. The fusion splice design provides a secure, low-loss connection with consistent performance, ideal for high-density fiber deployments in data centers, enterprise networks, and telecom infrastructure. Key applications include structured cabling systems, outdoor fiber enclosures, and environments requiring corrosion-resistant, durable components. The connector’s modular design allows for flexible integration into existing fiber management systems, supporting scalable network expansions. With a focus on reliability and ease of maintenance, the FSCSLT9SOCA9AG delivers a cost-effective alternative to traditional field-polished connectors without compromising signal integrity or performance.

How to Install the Panduit Fusion-Splice Connectors

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing Panduit Fusion-Splice Connectors for loose tube fiber with a 900μm build-up.

Estimated time: 1h

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Fiber cleaver, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Fusion splice connectors, Splice protection sleeves, Terminal connectors, Lint-free wipes, Fiber cleaning solution

  1. Prepare the splice machine

    Follow the initiation steps specific to your splice machine, including powering up, performing arc tests, and ensuring proper maintenance.

  2. Strip the fiber

    Strip at least 45 inches (115cm) of the outer jacket from the fiber, ensuring approximately 1 inch (3cm) of inner jacket remains for encapsulation in the fanout kit.

  3. Assemble the connector

    Place the connector rear housing and boot assembly onto the field fiber, followed by the splice protection sleeve, ensuring they slide over the build-up tube.

  4. Clean the fiber

    Clean the bare fiber using lint-free wipes and fiber cleaning solution, following safety precautions for handling bare optical fiber.

  5. Cleave the fiber

    Cleave the bare fiber to a length of 10mm using a fiber cleaver.

  6. Insert the fiber into the splice machine

    Place the cleaved fiber into the left-side fiber holder of the splice machine according to the manufacturer's instructions.

  7. Close the splice holder

    Place the plastic holder on the right side of the splice stage and close it securely.

  8. Start the splice process

    Close the wind cover of the splice stage and initiate the splice process, following the machine's specific instructions.

  9. Complete the splice

    After the splice is completed, gently slide the splice protection sleeve up to the rear of the fiber holder and open both holders.

  10. Heat the splice

    Place the splice point in the heater of the splice machine, ensuring it is centered, and close the heater cover to begin the heating process.

  11. Finalize the assembly

    Once the heating cycle is complete and the assembly has cooled, snap the front housing together with the rear housing, ensuring proper alignment.

  12. Attach the dust cap

    Grasp the dust cap to hold it in place and either cut off the handling stick or gently twist to remove it.
