AX101982 Optimax LC Connector
Optimax Field Installable Connector
The Optimax Connectors are reliable field installable optical fiber connectors that are easy to install.
They do not require epoxy, curing or polishing. Their unique design incorporates a factory polished
fiber stub in a splice mechanism which provides a fast, secure, and reliable termination on optical fiber
cables. All critical steps are performed in the factory, ensuring a superior-quality connection every time.
Only simple tools are required for installation, making Optimax a cost effective field termination.
Optimax Connectors are high-quality LC, SC and ST Compatible connectors that use a ceramic ferrule with
a physical contact (PC) polish for Multimode and super physical contact (SPC) polish for Single-mode
that ensures the best possible mating of optical fibers. Connectors are available for 62.5 or 50/125 µm
Multimode fiber and Single-mode fiber installations.

The Optimax Installation Tool Kit has all the tools and supplies required to install both the Optimax LC,
