It enables <b>up to 71% in labor cost savings <\/b>by eliminating most field splicing through factory-assembled, pre-connectorized fiber segments that deliver plug-and-play installation.<\/p><p>\n<b>CONCAT <\/b>simplifies fiber deployment by shifting critical fiber preparation and termination into a controlled manufacturing environment ensuring consistent quality, faster installation, and lower operational risk in the field. CONCAT solution is ideal for new builds, network expansions, and overbuild programs facing aggressive broadband coverage and speed targets. By reducing installation time and field errors, CONCAT significantly improves overall project economics.<\/p><p>\nThe CONCAT solution features a <b>concatenated, pre-connectorized MPO-to-LC cable assembly<\/b> integrated with a versatile enclosure and cassette architecture. It supports both <b>aerial and duct deployments<\/b>. Its spliceless, modular design lets operators scale faster, add customers quicker, and cut truck rolls, rework, and labor dependency. Recently, CONCAT has also been recognised by one of the industry\u2019s leading innovation awards based on a combination of technical merit, performance impact, design uniqueness, and overall contribution to advancing optical communications.<\/p><p>\nCommenting on this development, <b>Ryan Chappell, Vice President of Connectivity, STL,<\/b> said: \u201cThe U.S. broadband market is under enormous pressure to build faster, at lower cost, and with fewer skilled labor constraints. CONCAT is engineered for this reality. By eliminating field splicing and delivering true <i>plug-and-play<\/i>, we are enabling operators to accelerate FTTx rollouts while improving quality and reducing total deployment cost - a major step forward in how fiber networks are built in America.\u201d<\/p><p>\n<b>About STLOC \u2013 STL Optical Connectivity NA, LLC:<\/b><\/p><p>\nSTLOC, a U.S. subsidiary of STL, is focused on the design, manufacture, and sales of high-quality, advanced connectivity products for North American data center operators and customers.
