8308 SC and 8208 FC
Hot Melt Connectors
Ultra High Temp Single-mode
3M SC and FC Ultra High Temp Hot Melt
Connectors are the first connectors in the
industry to be truly field mountable and meet
Telcordia environmental specifications for
single-mode telephony.
Think of the headaches that you have with managing cable
assembly inventories and the logistics of ordering the correct
length. These problems can be solved by pulling the cable
first and then terminating the connector at the frame. 3M’s
Hot Melt connectors can now be used in telephony
applications to make central office and outside plant
installations neat and easy.

TM
Ultra High Temp Hot Melt Connectors
have been tested to 100°C (212°F) and can be
used in even the hottest outdoor
environments.
3M’s years of experience with preloaded adhesive in fiber
optic connectors has enabled the development of a connector
with all the advantages of Hot Melt, including the ability to
reheat and reposition the fiber in the termination process. This
is an easy-to-install field-mount connector with no additional
internal splice and the proven fiber retention of Hot Melt
connectors.

* SC connectors pass all of the mechanical tests in Telecordia GR-326, except transmission under applied tensile load at a 90° pull of 3.3 lbs.
or greater. This is consistent with other SC connectors that adhere to the NTT standard boot design. Transmission returns to the original
readings as soon as the load is released.
