FC Fiber Optic Connector

FC Splice-On Connector

The weak point of other fusion splice-on connectors occurs when the shock absorber of the stop ring is sleeved by heat shrink after fusion splicing. Typically, if the ferrule fiber, primary fiber, and the ferrule take a load toward the primary fiber, the fiber can be bent as shown in the diagrams below – possibly causing a disconnection of the fiber. To resolve this problem, the UCL Swift fiber optic splice-on connectors, such as the FC Splice-On Connector, uses the ferrule to disperse this transformation and prevent fiber optic disconnect.

  • Factory installed fiber stubs using high quality fiber provide verified performance
  • Factory polished and inspected ferrule end faces ensure optimum fiber optic connectivity and easy termination
  • Enhanced high tensile strength for improved field terminations FOCIS compliant connector interfaces
    Internal testing to verify performance and compliance with TIA-568-C.3
  • Ideal for use in high density medium and long-range optical transmission circuts for FTTH, LAN, CATV, data center and passive optical LAN
  • Swift 25-year warranty available

Applications:

  • Medium and long range optical transmission circuit, LAN, CATV, FA, OA
  • PC transmission system, measuring tools, etc.
  • FTTx Network
