17. 17 Corning Incorporated No-Epoxy/No-Polish Connectors: Are UniCam ® Connectors Right for You? Fusion pigtail splicing Epoxy-and-polish connectors UniCam No-Epoxy/No-Polish Connectors Other NENP Technology There are many field termination options available. How do you know which one is right for you?

18. 18 Corning Incorporated Selecting a Field Termination Method How Important Is Optical Performance? Optical Performance UniCam ® Pretium™-Performance Connectors… Rival fusion splicing performance Exceed epoxy-and-polish connectors Best-in-class among NENPs Different field termination options offer different levels of reliable optical performance. Fusion Splicing Epoxy-and- Polish UniCam Pretium- Performance Connectors Follower NENPs Termination Methods Advantage

19. 19 Corning Incorporated Selecting a Field Termination Method How Important Is Skill Independence? Optical Performance Installer Skill Independence Fusion splicing requires significant training Successful connectivity of E&P connectors is entirely dependent on the consistency of the hand polish Some NENPs tools require the installer to “feel” or interpret a good connection The UniCam ® Pretium™ Tool Kit virtually eliminates human variability Some field termination methods are highly dependent on installer experience, skill level and “feel.” Fusion Splicing Epoxy-and- Polish UniCam Pretium- Performance Connectors Follower NENPs Termination Methods Advantage

20. 20 Corning Incorporated Selecting a Field Termination Method How Important Is Total Investment? Optical Performance Installer Skill Independence Low Total Investment Fusion splicers are expensive and require ongoing consumables In addition to a tool kit, you’ll be buying epoxy and/or polishing materials in perpetuity. Scrap rates are also higher NENPs, including UniCam ® Connectors, have no consumables, only an initial kit to purchase, and low (or no) scrap rates Field termination has costs beyond the connector or equipment. Consumables and scrap rates add to your total investment. Fusion Splicing Epoxy-and- Polish UniCam Pretium- Performance Connectors Follower NENPs Termination Methods Advantage

21. 21 Corning Incorporated Selecting a Field Termination Method How Important Is Installation Flexibility?
