Product Overview

This ODVA waterproof connector is designed to protect fiber optic connections in harsh or outdoor environments. The connector body uses a round threaded mounting structure that can be installed on an enclosure, equipment panel, junction box, terminal box, or outdoor fiber distribution device.

 

The front side provides an ODVA waterproof interface with a screw-on protective cap. The rear side contains an SC optical adapter interface, allowing standard SC patch cords or internal fiber jumpers to connect inside the equipment. The external cap and sealing design help protect the optical port when the connector is not in use.

 

This product is commonly used in FTTA, outdoor fiber access, wireless base station equipment, industrial Ethernet, optical monitoring systems, and outdoor communication cabinets.

Main Selling Points

Rugged Outdoor Protection

The connector is built with a waterproof housing and protective cap, making it suitable for outdoor fiber access points and exposed equipment interfaces. The sealed structure helps protect the optical connection from dust, rain, and environmental contamination.

 

SC Interface Compatibility

The supplied photos show a green SC adapter interface, suitable for SC/APC fiber connections. SC/UPC, simplex, duplex, or other adapter configurations may be available according to project requirements.

 

Panel-Mount Installation

The threaded body and locking nut allow the connector to be mounted directly onto equipment panels, outdoor boxes, communication cabinets, or fiber distribution terminals. This provides a clean and reliable external optical access port.

 

Protective Dust Cap with Tether

The integrated dust cap helps protect the connector interface during transport, storage, and field operation. The cap is connected to the housing with a flexible strap, reducing the risk of losing the cap during installation or maintenance.

 

Suitable for OEM Projects

The connector can be supplied as a standalone adapter socket or integrated into customized waterproof fiber cable assemblies, patch cords, terminal boxes, or outdoor equipment solutions.
