Corning OptiTip® MT Assembly
Part Number: i2570-TIP-XX-X-X-X
The OptiTip® assembly is designed for use in outside plant fiber access networks with FlexNAP and OptiSheath® MDU and Fiber Distribution terminals. This innovative cable assembly solution provides enhanced design flexibility, increased deployment speed, and reduced installation cost.
The OptiTip® connector is the key enabler for quick connection of up to 12 fibers at a time. The connector is based on the field-proven MTP® connector technology encapsulated in a hardened package suitable for use in any environment. A male (pinned) version and a female (non pinned) version are easily joined to make a watertight terminal or in-line connection. Factory installation and testing ensure reliable, low optical loss on all fibers.
OptiTip assemblies are available with SST-Drop™
Outdoor Cable or FREEDM® Flat Drop Indoor/Outdoor
LSZH cable allows for easy migration of indoor and outdoor applications. The OptiTip Assembly is available with either pinned or non-pinned OptiTip MT Connectors to match your network needs.
