FOSC-400xG for Telenor, Norway and TDC, Denmark

Connectivity Convention

Background

Both Telenor and TDC have used FOSC-400 with heat shrink for many years, but had through FIST-GCO2 been introduced to gel-sealing's. Both parties were soon convinced of gel-seals superior features, and to be their preferred choice of sealing.

Due to both Telenor and TDC experiencing less skilled labor force to do the installations, a request for a gel-sealed FOSC was made to TE.

Connectivity Convention

Process

Several meetings at PM level with both Telenor & TDC took place during the process, which took approximately 9 month.

Training of installers were planned concurrently with starting sales to TDC, so a good knowledge of the product was already at hand once products came on stock.

Results

Spin-offs

For the Danish Railroad (BaneDanmark) TE offered a redesigned FOSC-400BG for terminated fibers, which has been chosen for their 3 billion € upgrade of their signaling system.

The FOSC-400D5 was also changed, so we have the full range of FOSC- “gel-closures”.
