OptiTap® Compatible Terminals
Category Overview
NetSource OptiTap® Compatible Terminals provide reliable fiber connectivity with rugged designs for telecom, enterprise, and outdoor network terminations.
NetSource’s Hardened SC/APC Multiport Terminals, manufactured in the U.S., provide a pre-connected, durable solution ideal for fiber-to-the-x (FTTx) installations in various outdoor environments. Designed for both underground and aerial installations, these IP68-rated terminals are available in multiple configurations (2, 4, 6, 8, and 12 ports), offering flexible and cost-effective network deployment options. With over two decades of proven technology, they are factory-terminated and environmentally sealed to guarantee high performance and reliability in harsh conditions. By routing multiple drops to a single splice location, these terminals streamline network infrastructure, reducing installation complexity and time. Suitable for aerial, pole, pedestal, handhole, and wall-mounted installations, they provide the ruggedness and flexibility needed for fast and efficient FTTx network expansion.
NetSource’s MST Fiber Terminals with Splitter Tails, designed and manufactured in the U.S., provide a durable and efficient solution for fiber-to-the-x (FTTx) network deployments. Engineered to withstand harsh outdoor conditions, these IP68-rated terminals ensure long-term reliability with robust protection against dust and water ingress. Each terminal is preconfigured with factory-installed splitters and terminated with OptiTap®-style single-fiber connectors, simplifying drop installations and reducing field labor.
By integrating splitter tails, these MSTs eliminate the need for separate splitter enclosures, reducing installation complexity and field splicing. This design enables incremental network expansion, making it an ideal solution for both rural broadband and high-density deployments. By efficiently distributing fiber, it helps
Available in 4-port (1×4 splitter), 8-port (1×8 splitter), and 12-port (1×12 splitter) configurations, these MSTs optimize fiber utilization by reducing the number of feeder fibers needed. This results in lower capital expenditures and faster customer activation, supporting scalable and cost-effective FTTx network expansion.
NetSource’s Stubless Fiber Terminals, designed and manufactured in the U.S., are ideal for outdoor fiber optic networks, particularly suited for fiber-to-the-x (FTTx) applications. Built to withstand harsh environmental conditions, these terminals feature IP68-rated protection against dust and water, ensuring reliability over the long term. Integrated with OptiTap®-style single-fiber connectors, these terminals offer dependable performance in a compact, stubless design. Available in 4-port (1×4 splitter), 8-port (1×8 splitter), and 12-port (1×12 splitter) configurations, they provide flexible and economical options for network expansion while managing installation costs.
NetSource’s Pre-Terminated Multiport Terminals with OptiTip® connectors provide a plug-and-play solution for rapid fiber-to-the-x (FTTx) deployments. These terminals feature OptiTap® compatible ports for customer drop connections, while the factory-installed tail is terminated with an OptiTip® multifiber connector for quick integration into distribution networks. By eliminating the need for field splicing, this design significantly accelerates installation timelines, ensures low-loss connectivity, and supports modular network growth. Available in 4-, 6-, 8-, and 12-port configurations with stub lengths ranging from 50 ft to 2500 ft, these terminals are built for aerial, pedestal, handhole, wall, and pole-mounted applications.
