Are you sure about your OC version? It seems that you are using 2.3.0.2 — DigitCart, Dec 26 '17 at 05:37

You need to use ftp_ssl_connect() function instead of ftp_connect() because server is using Explicit TLS/SSL

Try this:

admin\controller\extension\installer.php

Find:

$connection = ftp_connect($this->config->get('config_ftp_hostname'), $this->config->get('config_ftp_port'));

Change to:

$connection = ftp_ssl_connect($this->config->get('config_ftp_hostname'), $this->config->get('config_ftp_port'));
