Portable connector-curing oven
Portable connector-curing oven
A portable connector-curing oven can lower the cost of terminating fiber-optic cables in the field by allowing fast termination of low-cost connectors. Molded from hard rubber, the oven uses a thermodynamic design that allows it to operate on 12V DC current from an AC adapter or a vehicle adapter (both supplied), or a battery. Epoxy cure times of as little as 5 min are possible, with losses <0.3 dB and yield of 90% or more. Price is $295.
