SC Cable Assemblies

SC cable assemblies are designed for the most advanced ﬁber optic systems providing

exceptional stability and low reﬂection (single-mode). SC cable assemblies are well suited

for high-density applications. The SC connector uses a rectangular, molded design for

quick, easy push-pull installation. This design prevents ferrule rotation and axial damage

on the ﬁber contact points, reducing the potential for damage from mechanical vibration.

Features

• Meets or exceeds Telcordia GR-326

• Ceramic ferrule for durability

• 8° Angled PC polish for single-mode

ST Cable Assemblies

The ST connector’s nonslip housing makes installation quick and easy. The bayonet style

coupling uses a convenient push-twist-and-lock method for easy mounting and is keyed to

ensure easy alignment. The ST connector provides durable, quick, economical and reliable

terminations.

Features

• Metallic housing for both single-mode

and multimode

• Single twist bayonet coupling

Simplex Cable Assemblies

LC Cable Assemblies - Simplex

The LC connector reduces system cost by doubling the ﬁber density in shelves and

outlets without sacriﬁcing performance. Assemblies are manufactured and factory tested

to provide the high performance link needed in today’s high speed telephony, data, and

broadband networks. Available in both single-mode (blue housing) and multimode (beige

housing) versions.

FC Cable Assemblies

The FC connector’s cylindrical nonslip surface allows for fast and easy installation while

the keyed, threaded metallic coupling provides durable, reliable connections. A spring

loaded, pull-proof zirconia ferrule optimizes performance and prevents rotational damage

during mating and disconnections. Standard boot colors are green (angled single-mode),

blue (single-mode), and black (multimode).

Features

• Designed to meet Telcordia GR-326

MU Cable Assemblies - Simplex

MU assemblies are very useful in many high-density applications. While the MU connector

is 50% smaller than the SC connector, it maintains high optical performance. The MU’s

latchless design makes it the choice for backplane applications where blind-mating/

demating is required. In backplane applications where little demating is required and high-

density is the priority, MU-J is a useful alternative to the MU-A.

Speciﬁcations are subject to change without notice.

Duplex Cable Assemblies

Zipcord Assemblies

The zipcord tight-buffered cordage contains two tubes of ﬁber which are tight buffered

with a 900µm jacket. This construction is zipped apart to the desired length. These are

connectorized on the 3mm, 2.0mm or 1.6mm assembly. Connectors can be duplexed

with clips.

Dual-Link Cable Assemblies

Dual-link connectorized assemblies consist of 2.85mm outer jacket with two PVC 900µm

coated ﬁbers, connectorized on the 900µm legs. Standard length of this breakout is

1/2 meter. If an application requires 3.0mm furcation, use of a zipcord assemby is

recommended.

MT-RJ Assemblies

MT-RJ assemblies are ideally suited for high-density applications, doubling the ﬁber count

in shelves and outlets. The MT-RJ is very cost effective allowing the number of ports to

be doubled without doubling the cost of the electronics. The compact two ﬁber connector

features a snag-proof latching mechanism for worry free installation.

All FRSC cables are factory tested to meet stringent installation performance demands. This cable design makes splicing from an

optical node to a closure fast, easy and reliable. It signiﬁcantly reduces splicing time and effort by eliminating a fusion splice point. FRSC

cables are available in standard and custom lengths in 2-12 terminations with various connector types such as SC/APC, SC/UPC, FC/APC,

FC/UPC and LC/UPC.

Lensed Fiber Technology

Lensed ﬁbers are rapidly becoming the method of choice for interfacing optical ﬁber to

active devices and waveguides. Lensing technology provides highly efﬁcient couplings

while consuming a fraction of the space and costs of bulk optic alternatives.

AFL Telecommunications’ proprietary laser shaping technology enables high-end lenses

to be manufactured in volume at low costs. The laser quickly shapes the ﬁber tip into a

precise geometry using an optimized numerical solution based on the targeted far-ﬁeld

proﬁle. In-line far-ﬁeld monitoring ensures repeatability and high coupling efﬁciency.

This technology provides 10 times the throughput of conventional mechanical methods.

Furthermore, the yield loss from laser shaping is less than one percent, compared to

10-20 percent for mechanical matching. These exceptional yields allow high-value ﬁber

(i.e. FBGs, PM ﬁber, metalized ﬁber, etc.) to be lensed at minimal costs while maintaining

process ﬂow ﬂexibility.

AFL Telecommunications’ Advanced Fiber Assembly platform allows OEMs to consolidate

suppliers of metalized ﬁber, hermetic sleeves, AR coatings, Lensing, Fiber Bragg Gratings

and connectorization into a single source for the entire pigtail assembly.

Features

Lensed ﬁber technology offers advantages over traditional mechanical and fusion

lensing methods;

• Increased coupling efﬁciency – lensed ﬁber offers precise geometry and surface ﬁnish

compared to mechanical/fusion methods

• Increased performance – laser machining offers optimization around focal length, spot

size and far-ﬁeld parameters

• Increased reliability – Far-ﬁeld feedback loop eliminates rework and inspections

• Increased reproducibility and ﬂexibility – lensing provides optimized geometry created by

numerical solution

• Increased Value – high yields enable packaging of customized total solutions

FAST-SC & FAST-ST Connectors

AFL’s new FAST Connectors are pre-polished, ﬁeld installable connectors that eliminate the

need for hand polishing in the ﬁeld. FAST Connectors provide an immediate termination to

either single-mode or multimode ﬁbers.

FAST Connectors feature a pre-stubbed factory-polished ferrule that couples to the ﬁber

being terminated by precision mechanical alignment and insures low loss with a propri-

etary gel. Each FAST Connector comes with a factory-installed wedge clip that holds the

clamping device open while the ﬁber is inserted. Once the ﬁber is in place, the wedge clip

is removed and discarded.

Buildout-Style Attenuators

Buildout-style attenuators provide superior performance for all single-mode in line attenu-

ation requirements. Standard attenuation values are 3, 5, 10, 15 and 20dB. Buildout

attenuators are available in SC, ST, LC, and FC connector styles. They use no air gap,

ﬁlters or light path discontinuities. Attenuation is achieved by controlled absorption of light

energy. This results in a polarization insensitive device with high power handling capability,

environmentally stable and exceptionally responsive across a wide bandpass range.
