Product Overview & Splicing-Free Architecture
The MTC Cable Branch Version Pre-Connectorized Terminal is designed as a direct straight-through point-to-point interconnect hub for outdoor outside plant (OSP) FTTH links. By intentionally excluding internal optical splitters, this product group operates with an ultra-low insertion loss of ≤0.45 dB, making it perfect for high-capacity enterprise drops, direct long-span distributions, and backhaul networks where conserving optical signal power is vital.
The terminal ports feature an ultra-small form factor geometry that is entirely Pushlok® compatible, meaning operators can plug standard pre-terminated Pushlok-style drop assemblies or our proprietary Sticklok cords straight into the internal ports. This setup ensures clean fiber management with zero field splicing requirements.

FAQ
What is a pre-connectorized cable branch terminal in FTTH networks?
A pre-connected cable branch terminal (such as our MTC Series) is a ruggedized outdoor fiber distribution hub designed for point-to-point cross-connections without any internal optical splitters. Unlike standard PLC splitter boxes that divide optical power, a branch terminal maintains a direct, transparent optical pathway. It comes factory-terminated with high-density hardened adapters, allowing technicians to connect subscriber drop lines directly via plug-and-play insertion, completely eliminating the need for tedious on-site fusion splicing.
Are the MTC series branch terminals fully compatible with Corning Pushlok® systems?
Yes, the MTC Series terminal ports are engineered to be fully Pushlok® compatible. The physical port boundaries and inner latch alignments match the ultra-small form factor (USFF) hardened standards utilized in major Ovolv® OSP architectures. This allows operators to seamlessly plug industry-standard Pushlok-style pre-terminated drop cables or our high-tensile Sticklok assemblies directly into the MTC housing, avoiding restrictive vendor lock-in.
What is the maximum insertion loss for an MTC pre-connectorized branch terminal?
The maximum insertion loss across the entire MTC pre-connectorized branch terminal family is strictly controlled at $\le 0.45\text{ dB}$, evaluated comprehensively across both the 1310nm and 1550nm dual-wavelength windows. Because there is no passive optical splitting inside the enclosure, it preserves the maximum possible optical power budget, making it ideal for long-distance distributions and premium enterprise leased-line deployments.
Can the 2-layer MTC branch terminal box be installed in underground environments?
Yes, the MTC branch terminal box is designed with an IP68 ingress protection rating, meaning it is fully certified for underground environments such as telecom manholes and handholes. It can withstand continuous submersion under 3 meters (10 feet) of water pressure for 7 consecutive days without any fluid ingress or degradation of optical performance. Its minimized structural footprint allows network planners to deploy it inside lower-cost, space-constrained handhole wells.
What fiber count capacities does the MTC pre-connected branch terminal offer?
The MTC Series provides a highly flexible capacity matrix ranging from 4 to 24 fiber channels. Low-density paths are managed via ultra-compact 1-layer enclosures (available in 4F, 6F, and 8F configurations). For medium to high-density distribution nodes, the series utilizes heavy-duty 2-layer enclosures to house 6F, 8F, 12F, 16F, and up to 24F master terminal connections in a tightly unified footprint.
