Clearfield Keeps it Simple
The Clearfield design philosophy starts with a company value: listening to our clients.
Over-designing fiber optic management solutions increases the cost to the customer with no real added benefit. Ensuring that the basic rules of fiber management are met and reliably maintained, simple, yet innovative, features are only added when the benefit results in lower deployment costs through reduced installation and service turn-up time, elimination of other material costs and total cost of ownership.
When it comes to fiber optic distribution, consolidation, management and protection of fiber, nothing comes close to Clearfield’s practical approach. Designed for scalable fiber deployment, craft-friendly operation, and unsurpassed protection, Clearfield’s simplicity in design delivers you a cost effective, technician friendly solution. Coupled with the flexibility to deploy the product platform in your full range of fiber applications – including FTTX, cell backhaul, distributed antenna, node collapse or other premise and commercial environments, Clearfield is your fiber connectivity specialist.
Clearfield's Fiber Optic Management and Delivery Product Platfoms
Clearfield sets the standard for fiber performance with FiberDeep® cable assemblies, while lowering the cost of broadband deployment with the FieldSmart® fiber optic management platform and the CraftSmart® OSP enclosure system.
FieldSmart is the only fiber management platform to be designed around a single architecture – Clearview® Blue and the small count Clearview xPAK – for the inside plant, outside plant and access network. FieldSmart supports a wide range of panel and cabinet configurations, densities, connectors and adapter options, and are offered alongside an assortment of passive optical components.
CraftSmart is the industry’s only field enclosure system optimized for fiber deployment at the network’s last miles access point. These thermoplastic above and below-grade enclosures provide turn-key physical fiber protection for passive optical networks.
FiberDeep guarantees .2dB or less insertion loss on every singlemode patch cord and 12-fiber assembly deployed within the Clearview Cassette. No longer considered a commodity in today’s cable plant, 4G networks require superior performance standards – and Clearfield delivers fiber connectivity products to ensure consistent reliability.
WaveSmart® Optical Components are custom-built for the unique light requirements and interoperability needs of PON splitting, fiber exhaust scenarios and coarse and dense division multiplexing. Clearfield delivers unparalleled fiber performance with its optical components.
Installing fiber where you want it, when you want it, cost-effectively is the promise of the FieldShield® Optical Fiber Protection Platform. Regardless of application, FieldShield microduct provides a pathway to homes, businesses, antenna, data center or desktop. Used in conjunction with Clearfield's FieldShield fiber optic cables that can be either pushed or pulled into the microduct providing a faster installation using minimal labor. These assemblies are manufactured using bend insensitive fiber and pre-terminated in Clearfield factories for optimal performance. FieldShield Fiber is also strong enough to be stapled to walls and offers a built-in, bend-limiting function that prevents damage to fiber.
Helping to drive the cost out of fiber optic deployments, the YOURx® platform is designed to accept a wide range of industry-standard and FieldShield drop cable options. The YOURx-Terminal and YOURx-Aerial Terminal are constructed of high-grade plastic and handle even the harshest Outside Plant environments. A secure, flexible and modular wall box, the YOURx Flex Box allows you to create an easy to install, plug-and-play fiber optic network.
StreetSmart® products provide the best-in-class fiber optic management that our customers expect from Clearfield. The StreetSmart Fiber Hand-Off Box offers up to a 48-port point of demarcation between backhaul providers and network operators. Our StreetSmart Small Count Fiber Hand-Off Box is an ideal fiber termination solution for 5G or DAS deployment. When needing an aerial application, Clearfield’s StreetSmart Aerial FDH provides an interconnect environment from the feeder network through the passive splitter to the distribution network. The StreetSmart Pre-Assigned FDH PON Cabinet is a turn-key Outside Plant solution for up to 288 distribution fibers.
With the introduction of the SeeChange™ Terminal and Hardened Connector System, network operators speed the final connection with a small, craft-friendly, carrier-grade access terminal ideal for any fiber network deployment benefiting from a plug-and-play approach.
With a variety of products, Clearfield is your answer to fiber network needs. We’ve listened to our customers – delivering superior form, fit and function at a price point unmatched in the industry.
