Custom-Built for Your Application

These stock fiber optic connectors ship quickly and are designed for users who need a fast, easy-to-use termination solution without the complexity of splicing or epoxy-based installations. They provide an excellent alternative when a fully spliced or fusion-spliced pigtail is not an immediate option.

While these connectors are not customizable, we offer a wide selection of other fiber optic connectivity solutions that can be tailored to your specific project needs, including factory-terminated fiber assemblies, bulk fiber cables, and customizable connectorized solutions.

Key Features & Benefits:

  • Fast and Easy Installation: No need for epoxy or extensive polishing; just strip, cleave, insert, and secure.

  • Pre-Polished Ceramic Ferrule: Provides high durability, low insertion loss, and stable optical performance over time.

  • Compatible with Singlemode and Multimode Fiber: Available for OS2 singlemode (9/125) and OM1, OM3, and OM4 multimode (50/125 and 62.5/125) fiber types.

  • Reliable Connection: Offers a stable, low-loss connection for quick restoration or temporary use in fiber optic networks.

  • Industry-Standard LC and SC Connectors: Compatible with a wide range of fiber optic cables and patch panels.

  • TAA Compliant & Made with Quality Components: Suitable for government and enterprise installations requiring high-quality materials.

Available Configurations for These Products

  • Connector Types:

    • LC UPC / LC APC for singlemode and multimode applications.

    • SC UPC / SC APC for singlemode and multimode applications.

  • Fiber Types:

    • Singlemode 9/125 OS2 for long-distance applications.

    • Multimode 50/125 OM3/OM4 for high-bandwidth, short-range applications.

    • Multimode 62.5/125 OM1 for legacy fiber networks.

  • Length: While these are individual connectors, we offer fiber optic patch cables and bulk fiber spools in lengths ranging from 10 feet up to 5000 feet.

  • Pulling Eye Option: Not applicable to individual connectors, but available for custom pre-terminated fiber assemblies.

Common Uses for Fiber Optic Connectors

  • Emergency Repairs: Quickly restore fiber optic connections without the need for a fusion splicer.

  • Temporary Installations: Ideal for situations where a quick network connection is needed before a permanent splice is made.

  • Data Centers & Enterprise Networks: Used for fast fiber optic terminations and system upgrades.

  • Military & Industrial Applications: Provides rugged, easy-to-use fiber terminations in the field.

FAQ:

How do these connectors differ from standard fiber optic connectors?

These quick connectors are pre-polished and designed for fast field termination, eliminating the need for epoxy and polishing, unlike traditional fiber optic connectors that require extensive preparation.

Can these connectors be used permanently?

While these connectors provide a stable and reliable connection, they are best suited for temporary or semi-permanent applications. For high-performance, long-term installations, fusion splicing or pre-terminated assemblies are recommended.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need a fiber optic cleaver to ensure a precise, clean cut of the fiber before inserting it into the connector. Some basic alignment tools may also be used to ensure proper fiber seating.

Do these connectors work with all fiber optic cables?

These connectors are designed for singlemode and multimode simplex fibers. They are compatible with most 900µm tight-buffered and 250µm fiber optic cables, but not with ribbon fiber or MPO/MTP cables.

Can I use these connectors outdoors?

While these connectors provide a secure and low-loss fiber termination, they are not weatherproof. If you require an outdoor-rated connection, consider using pre-terminated armored fiber cables or weatherproof splice enclosures.
