CommScope: NOVUX™ Hardened Terminals

Part of the CommScope’s NOVUX fiber-to-the-home ecosystem, NOVUX Hardened Terminals are engineered to be configurable, scalable, and simple. NOVUX Hardened Terminals use 75% fewer components than alternative terminals and offer 50X the number of configurations, the company asserts. The portfolio supports single-fiber and multi-fiber, splitters, optical tap, and fiber indexing and can accommodate on-demand configurations.

Judge’s Comment: “This may prove highly useful for a variety of operators facing the challenge of training new technicians or having to retrain existing ones. It simplifies what was once a very complex task in installing new endpoints using modular technologies.”
