Product Details

Clearfield ensures the quality of its 90 Degree Drop Node Assemblies by utilizing factory-terminated connectors, a fully water-blocked entry connector, loose tube, gel-filled cable (on most assemblies) and a GR-326 complaint 900 μm fiber termination process. This provides exceptional performance and stability over a full range of outdoor temperatures and environmental conditions. The end-user gains complete control over drop access and reconfiguration.
