Siemon's new XLR8 mechanical splice termination kit incorporates an exclusive dual-process activation tool which dramatically reduces termination time per connector. The tool kit is universal - capable of terminating both SC and LC interfaces.

Combined with the patent-pending XLR8 activation tool, Siemon's new pre-polished XLR8 mechanical splice connectors can be deployed with unsurpassed termination speed and quality. Available in both LC and SC configurations, these connectors support both the multimode and singlemode versions of Siemon's 10 Gb/s XGLO^® and Gigabit-ready LightSystem^® solutions.
