Vertical 265-MEC01-C Optical Fiber Mechanical Splice, Universal, 0.25 and 0.9 mm, Pack of 6

VERTICAL CABLE 265-MEC01-C – OPTICAL FIBER MECHANICAL SPLICE, UNIVERSAL (6-PACK)

The 265-MEC01-C is a universal mechanical splice designed for quick, reliable optical fiber termination. Built to support single-fiber applications, it simplifies splicing with tool-free installation in under 30 seconds. The compact profile and ANSI/TIA-568.3-D compliance make it ideal for professional fiber deployments in structured cabling systems.

KEY FEATURES

Here’s what makes the 265-MEC01-C mechanical splice a high-performance solution:

• Standard 19-Inch Mounting: EIA-ECA-310-E compliant for universal rack or cabinet compatibility.
• Universal Compatibility: Works with coated fibers from 250 μm to 900 μm.
• Fast Installation: Splice and secure fiber in under 30 seconds—no epoxy or curing required.
• Low Insertion Loss: Typical insertion loss of 0.1 dB; maximum of 0.3 dB.
• High Return Loss: Provides a return loss of ≥45 dB for signal reliability.
• Mechanical Strength: Maintains fiber integrity with a tensile strength of ≤4 N (0.9 lbf).
• Compact Dimensions: Measures 1.5 in. × 0.2 in. × 0.3 in. (38.1 mm × 5.08 mm × 7.62 mm).
• Wide Temperature Range: Operates from -20 °C to +70 °C (-4 °F to +158 °F).
• Included in Each Pack: Sold as a 6-pack for field readiness and scalability.
• Storage Resilience: Withstands temperatures down to -45 °C (-49 °F) in non-operational conditions.
• Optional Holder Available: Compatible with Vertical Cable’s 12-fiber holder (265-HLD13-2B4-0).

APPLICATIONS

The 265-MEC01-C is ideal for technicians and integrators working in:

• Fiber Termination in the Field: Enables fast splicing during emergency repairs or last-mile installations.
• FTTH/FTTX Projects: Excellent for residential or commercial drop fiber applications.
• LAN and Data Networks: Supports structured cabling backbones and telecom closets.
• Test Labs or Temporary Links: Easily reversible splicing for testing or move/add/change environments.
• Tight Spaces or Low-Profile Installations: Compact size fits confined enclosures or raceway runs.
