About this Installation Instruction
This installation instruction describes the installation of the FST-T terminal, the full size hardened adapter and the DLX®
adapter. The instruction will explain how to handle the terminal and factory integrated adapter drop ports, how to mount the
terminal (hand hole and pedestal), how to connect and maintain the different adapter types (full size, DLX and HMFOC).
The FST-T is a compact sealed terminal with hardened connectivity for reliable plug-n-play distribution to customer premises.
Featuring pre-connectorized hardened full size or DLX adapter drops, CommScope's FST-T enables FTTH deployment
in brown field and green field applications, with or without coax in place. Primarily designed for pedestal and hand hole
applications, the terminal provides fast, easy network connections in space-constrained environments. The FST-T terminal is
available with 4, 8 or 12 drops and an HMFOC cable with either no pin or pinned adapter.
