OPTOKON offers patchcords, optical connection modules designed for home use in FTTH networks. Patchcords are equipped with SC connectors with a shutter, which protects the connector itself from contamination or damage that could occur during manipulation in the end user's conditions. The shutter also protects the operator from the effects of laser radiation when connecting the user's end device to the FTTH network. During the connection process, the shutter in the connection port moves away and does not prevent the transmission of the optical signal. When the connector is disconnected and removed from the coupling, the shutter closes again automatically.

The Shuttered SC Connector offers eye protection with a unique internal shutter mechanism that blocks the light path when it is not installed. Ideal for applications where the user may be untrained or connecting to energized equipment.
