Ready Connect Terminal Maximizes Aesthetic and
Functional Benefits for Any Deployment Environment
Clearfield, Inc. (NASDAQ:CLFD), the leader in community
broadband fiber connectivity, today announced the release of the
StreetSmart® Ready Connect™ Terminal (RCT), a small, craft-friendly
fiber terminal designed for pedestal applications that supports up
to eight drop connections when mid-span is needed. Developed based
on the demands of the market and feedback from customers, this
innovative terminal addresses key operator needs, such as space
constraints, ease of installation, and long-term reliability. It is
optimized for small pedestals, such as Clearfield’s CraftSmart®
FiberFirst™ 6-inch pedestal, providing a discreet, aesthetically
pleasing solution.
The Ready Connect Terminal is engineered to offer exceptional
flexibility in diverse application environments, including rural,
suburban, and urban deployments. Its design supports both
terminated and spliced drops and includes features such as a
removable splice tray for easy fiber routing of up to 24 loose-tube
fibers. These capabilities make the Ready Connect Terminal an ideal
solution for operators seeking efficient, scalable, and reliable
fiber connections in above-ground pedestal installations.
“The compact design of the Ready Connect Terminal ensures
operators can meet the increasing demand for fiber broadband while
maintaining the aesthetic integrity of residential and commercial
spaces,” said Clearfield’s Chief Marketing Officer, Anis Khemakhem.
“With its ability to handle mid-span and drop terminations, the
Ready Connect Terminal simplifies the deployment process for
technicians, helping network providers bridge the digital divide
faster and more cost-effectively.”
Features and Benefits:
- Compact Design: Optimized for deployment in Clearfield’s 6-inch
CraftSmart pedestal, offering a low-profile solution for
residential and commercial areas.
- Ease of Access: Includes a removable splice tray and adapter
plate for cleaning, scoping, and splicing, enabling technicians to
complete installations efficiently.
- Robust Protection: Durable materials and lay-in grommets
provide secure cable retention, ensuring long-term reliability
across various environmental conditions.
- Flexible Applications: Supports mid-span splicing and drop
terminations, making it suitable for diverse deployment
scenarios.
The StreetSmart Ready Connect Terminal is optimized to address
customer needs in above-ground distributed TAP and distributed
split architectures. Unlike alternative terminals, the Ready
Connect Terminal is specifically designed for small pedestal
applications, offering a smaller footprint and easier installation
without compromising network performance.
“Clearfield continues to deliver innovative solutions that
simplify fiber deployments and provide a scalable solution. The
Ready Connect Terminal also includes key features that provide
security to the fibers and flexibility in how it’s deployed in the
outside plant where space is a premium,” said Donny Colson,
Director of OSP Engineering and Operations, Palmetto Rural
Telephone Cooperative. “The Ready Connect Terminal fits perfectly
into our plans as it gives our field installation teams splicing
options, protects the fiber strands from damage from animals, and
allows us to streamline deployment as it can be used with all of
our member network deployments.”
The Ready Connect Terminal is available for orders. More
