The MultiPort Connectorised Block Terminal (CBT) is a compact, factory-sealed fiber distribution solution engineered to accelerate fiber-to-the-x (FTTx) network deployments. With options for 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12 ports, this robust terminal is purpose-built to simplify the installation of subscriber drop cables while ensuring long-term environmental protection in outdoor and indoor applications.
Designed for outside plant (OSP) environments, the MultiPort Connectorised Block Terminal improves installation efficiency, lowers labor costs, and enhances network reliability. Whether mounted in ducts, aerial lines, handholes, or wall enclosures, this terminal delivers a high-performance interface for fiber access connections.
What Is a MultiPort Connectorised Block Terminal?
The MultiPort Connectorised Block Terminal is a plug-and-play optical distribution point used in FTTx access networks. It allows pre-terminated drop cables to be quickly and securely connected to the network without field splicing. The stubbed design enables multiple terminals to converge at a single splice location, reducing the number of splice points and simplifying network architecture.
This approach not only saves time and labor during installation but also minimizes exposure to environmental variables that could affect performance.
Key Features of the MultiPort Connectorised Block Terminal
- Available in 2, 4, 6, 8, or 12-port configurations
- Pre-connectorised drop cable ports for plug-and-play connection
- Stubbed cable design allows for centralized splicing
- IP68-rated housing ensures long-term environmental protection
- Compatible with SC/APC and SC/UPC connectors
- Flexible mounting options: aerial, duct, pedestal, pole, or wall
- Factory-sealed and tested for maximum reliability
- Uses SST (Self-Supporting Toneable) Cable with excellent crush resistance
- RoHS and REACH compliant
- Speeds up deployment and reduces OPEX
Improve FTTx Deployment Speed and Flexibility
In fiber access networks, time and reliability are critical. The MultiPort Connectorised Block Terminal eliminates field splicing and the need for complex on-site fiber terminations. Each unit is delivered with factory-installed connectors and stub cables, which significantly shortens installation time and increases workforce productivity.
This solution is especially valuable in rural broadband, urban MDUs, and suburban fiber rollouts where network scalability and fast customer activation are key performance metrics.
Applications
The MultiPort Connectorised Block Terminal is ideal for:
- Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) deployments
- Fiber-to-the-Building (FTTB) in multi-dwelling units
- Business fiber access networks
- Aerial and buried OSP installations
- Network upgrades and expansions
Its sealed, hardened design supports use in aerial strand mounts, duct systems, poles, handholes, cabinets, and pedestals, making it a truly universal solution for high-speed fiber rollouts.
Stubbed Cable Design for Efficient Network Architecture
The terminal’s stubbed configuration consolidates splicing to one central location, dramatically reducing the time and complexity of field installations. This reduces the number of splice points, which:
- Improves network integrity and reduces potential points of failure
- Decreases maintenance and troubleshooting time
- Minimizes the need for trained splicing technicians in the field
This design simplifies the fiber network topology, leading to faster project completion and easier management of subscriber turn-ups.
Rugged Performance for Harsh Environments
The MultiPort Connectorised Block Terminal is equipped with SST (Self-Supporting Toneable) Cable, engineered to endure harsh outdoor conditions. The SST cable is crush-resistant and flexible, allowing installation in tight conduit spaces or across long aerial spans without compromising signal quality or cable integrity.
The terminal’s IP68-rated enclosure protects internal components from water, dust, and temperature extremes, ensuring uninterrupted performance in even the most challenging environments.
