Splice-On Connectors (SOC's) and Accessories
FIS’ patented SOC holder design is available in stock for most industry-leading Fusion Splicers; giving the installer the luxury of installing a Cheetah or Armordillo SOC with the tools they already have. Each SOC holder will allow you to splice SC, LC, ST and FC connectors, with 1.6mm, 2.0mm, and 3.0mm cordage holders available for your more rugged installations. See the table below to find your fusion splice combinations. (Please note that use of Armordillo as well as ST/FC Cheetahs will require the FIS Universal SOC oven)

FIS 3mm / 2mm / 1.6mm ARMORDILLO™ SOC (10 Packs and 100 Packs)


Using a factory-terminated and pre-polished connector, the Armordillo Splice-On Connector (SOC) provides a connection that meets or exceeds industry standards for loss and back reflection. The Splice-On Connector is provided with a factory-cleaved 900um fiber stub to ensure ease of use and optimal performance.
The unique 3mm and 2mm boot allows the entire splice to be concealed and protected. The addition of an extended brass crimp ring provides extra protection to the splice and utilizes the Kevlar for maximized pull strength. The Armordillo is designed to work with FIS, Fitel, AFL and Sumitomo splicers and cleavers (cordage fiber holders required). The Universal SOC Oven can shrink the inner tube in 45 seconds. Comes with custom piece of furcation for use on 1.6mm OD cable on standard boot.
-Splice-On solution for 3mm, 2mm and 1.6mm applications
-Splice protection encapsulated and protected by the extended brass crimp ring and strain relief boot
-Same ease of use as the 900um SOC
Each Armordillo SOC Includes: 11. Extended furcation kit for use on 1.6mm OD cable, Connector, Cleave Protector, Extended Dust Cap, 3mm and 2mm Boot, Extended Brass Crimp Ring, and Protection Sleeve

FIS PROTECTION SLEEVE OVEN


FIS’ splice protection sleeve oven is the perfect companion to any fusion splicer by allowing for external shrinking of fiber protection sleeves, which extends the life of a fusion splicer’s battery. This allows for more splices in the field and improves the efficiency of the splice process. Low profile allows for easy placement of either 40mm or 60mm fusion splice sleeves while providing a stable base for a variety of applications.

AFL FUSEConnect® 900µm / 2.0mm / 3.0mm


FUSEConnect® utilizes a fusion splicer to terminate a connector in the field, addressing return loss concerns present in analog optical networks. This advanced process yields true APC performance of >65dB return loss in an SC/APC configuration. Designed to work with an industry standard 10mm cleave length and splicers utilizing a fiber holder system, FuseConnect is compatible not only with Fujikura’s fusion splicers, but also with most other industry available, fiber holder-based fusion splicing platforms. MPO Splice-On Connectors Available.
NOTE: Use AFL Splicers with Fiber Holders for FUSEConnect® and Installation kit is recommended for best performance
