FIBER OPTICS
FIBER OPTIC CABLE ASSEMBLIES
AND ADAPTERS
DESCRIPTION
The FC optical connector is an industry standard,
particularly in telecom applications. Its threaded
barrel and keyed ferrule coupling mechanism
allow highly repeatable low-loss connections.
All FCI optical cable assemblies are
manufactured to the customer’s specifications
with the highest standards of quality. Each
jumper, pigtail or fan-out is 100% visually
inspected and tested. A data package tailored
to specific requirements is available upon
request.
Custom design services and rapid prototyping
are offered to speed product development.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
Optically non-disconnecting design
The precision zirconia ferrules are
highly concentric and pre-radiused
A variety of connector and adapter
styles are available to meet all application
requirements
Available in either single-mode or
multi-mode
Signal interruption is prevented via
the optically non-disconnecting feature
Insertion loss and return loss are
minimized via the precision zirconia
ferrule
