The Codecom Underground Access Terminal (UAT) is an IP68-rated, pre-connectorised fibre distribution solution designed to accelerate FTTH network deployment while significantly reducing both capital and operational expenditure. Built for pit installation in outdoor environments, the UAT’s compact ABS housing makes it one of the most practical and cost-effective tools available for deploying cascaded optical distribution networks in fibre to the home rollouts.

Factory-tested to guarantee optical performance before leaving the production line, the UAT eliminates the need for skilled on-site splicing and delivers tool-free connectivity that can reduce installation times by up to 50%. OptiTap® compatible SC/APC hardened connectors ensure predictable insertion loss for accurate network design, while the scalable architecture supports future network expansions without requiring costly rework.

Available in 1:4, 1:8, and 1:16 split ratios as well as straight-through and splice-on enclosure configurations, the UAT adapts to a wide range of FTTH network topologies and customer density requirements.
