APC 8010
The APC 8010 is the perfect machine for every fiber optic production. High reproducibility with all connector geometries ensures high productivity during production. This is made possible by a permanent pressure control, which is adjusted to the connector type and quantity.
Backshells
Backshells are available in different types for a variety of applications. In ground and naval applications, the robustness and the environmental sealing may be more important, whereas weight may be a prime consideration for space and Aerospace application. Military & Aerospace applications are governed by SAE, AS85049 standard, and our Backshells are designed to meet requirements of this standard
Backshells as per VG95319-1011
Backshell as per VG95319 as adapter with strain reliever shells for D38999 series 3. This forms a connection to a plug or a socket. This serves to seal or for continuing shielding. The backshells are available in various versions, straight or bent as tape adapters, individual cone adapters or mold adapters.
Battery Backup Unit Cabinets
Battery Backup Unit Cabinets are pad mount enclosures designed to provide superior environmental protection of Ni-Cd and VRLA battery strings and are ideally suited for cell sites and other outdoor environments where a large amount of battery backup is required.
Below Grade HDPE Handhole Enclosures
Charles Below Grade Enclosures (CBGE) are lightweight, molded HDPE handholes available in five rectangular and two round sizes. Designed for light-duty placements (parkway/greenbelt applications), these ANSI/SCTE rated below-grade enclosures store fiber optic and copper cable slack, meters, sealed cases, control valves, ground rods, signal controls, and various other equipment.
Bi-Component Molding
Seals can be assembled or also molded on in 2-component injection molding. 2-component hard-hard combinations are also possible.
Bonding & Grounding
Because lightning is a frequent and recurring natural event across North America, it’s important to consider the effect it can have on a network. Current can enter a home through any number of conductive routes, including CATV cables, posing the risk of damage to delicate electronics as well as possible injury to occupants.
