FTTH FATB Access Terminal Box
Indoor Fiber Access Terminal for FTTX Networks
1/2 core, SC/LC(Duplex) Connector
The FATB (Fiber Access Terminal Box) is an indoor wall-mounted terminal designed for FTTH/FTTX network deployments. This compact terminal box provides a secure connection point between drop cables and optical network unit (ONU) devices at subscriber premises.
Available in 1-core, 2-core, and 4-core configurations, the FATB supports multiple connection methods including fusion splicing, mechanical connectors, and fiber management cassettes (FMC). The ergonomic design with transparent protective cover and vertically oriented fiber ports ensures safe installation and maintenance access.
Key Features
Safety-Focused Design
Transparent plastic cover provides visual access to internal connections without requiring opening. Vertically downward fiber ports minimize risk of accidental contact or personal injury during operation.
Flexible Cable Entry
Multi-directional cable inlet options accommodate various installation scenarios including wall routing, ceiling drops, and floor conduits. Supports both flat drop cables (2.0 mm × 3.0 mm) and round cables (Φ5 mm to Φ7 mm).
Multiple Connection Options
Supports fusion splicing, mechanical connectors, and FMC modules, providing installation flexibility based on available tools and technical requirements. Compatible with SC and LC adapter types in UPC and APC polish configurations.
Professional Appearance
Clean white finish integrates seamlessly with residential and office environments. Compact dimensions (86 mm × 115 mm × 23 mm) minimize visual impact while maintaining adequate working space for fiber management.
User-Friendly Interface
Clear markings and organized internal layout prevent installation errors. Plug-and-play fiber connections can be serviced without removing the terminal from the wall.
Wide Operating Range
Functions reliably across temperature range from -25°C to +60°C with humidity tolerance up to 93% at 30°C. Suitable for indoor installations throughout Pakistan’s diverse climate zones.
