Features and Benefits
With innovative fiber indexing technology, the benefits of plug-and-play hardened connectivity are dramatically increased. Designed specifically for fiber indexing deployments, fiber indexing terminals (NDX) give providers pole, pedestal, or handhole mounting options, and are designed for quick and easy installation.
When deployed in a daisy-chain architecture, fiber indexing terminals have all the advantages of the access terminals portfolio—speed, flexibility, and density—plus, they save the network provider as much as 70 percent of their fiber cabling budget.
In fiber indexing, up to 12 terminals are daisy-chained in a series. This allows a fast and repeatable “cookie-cutter” approach to network design and deployment. The efficient modular design enables efficient,cost-effective connections for new subscribers and services, while allowing providers to take a pay-as-you-grow approach to FTTx deployment.
In a typical FTTx network, signals from the fiber distribution hub (FDH) travel “forward” from the first terminal to the last. When a second FDH cable is connected to the last terminal, the signal runs “backwards” toward the first terminal. Called “reversed feed,” this technique makes additional fibers available, which providers can use to respond in a virtual instant to unforeseen demands for a wide range of revenue-generating services.

- Fiber Indexing terminals are access terminals using hardened connectivity technology that withstand the rugged outside plant environment
- Fiber Indexing terminals eliminate splicing and use 12-strand fiber cable in a daisy-chain topology, reducing the total required cable length by up to 70%
- Hardened adapters are factory-terminated and environmentally sealed to ensure rapid plug-and play drop cable installations
