• Multimode and singlemode available

Singlemode Patch Cords

• Undergo testing for both insertion loss and return loss

(typical insertion loss is 1 dB)

• Ultra polish SC, LC & FC connectors styles with additional connector types available on request (-55 dB min return loss)

FasTerm™ CONNECTOR SOLUTIONS

Connectors that can be put on in the field using anaerobic epoxy

• No heat cure requiring curing ovens

• No need to mix epoxies

• Takes less than 3 minutes to install

• Available in ‘tool’ kits

• Multimode offers SC Connectors

• Singlemode offers SC & FC connectors

IN-LINE ATTENUATOR SOLUTIONS

Purpose is to increase the attenuation or return loss if there’s too much signal for the receiver, typically installed in-line between the connector and adapter on the ODF

• SC connectors available in angled polish and ultra polish (-65 and -55dB min return loss)

• FC connectors available in ultra polish (-55 dB min return loss)

• LC connectors available in ultra polish (-55 dB min return loss)

ADAPTER SOLUTIONS

Purpose is to allow mating of one connector to another, colored for identification purposes to maintain distinct differences between different style connectors (Green=Angled Polish, Blue=Ultra Polish, Putty=Multimode, Aqua=10G)

• Singlemode adapters offered with both Phosphor Bronze sleeves and Zirconia sleeves for high performance

• Multimode adapters available with Phosphor Bronze sleeve only

• Simplex and Duplex Adapters are also available

Notes for FC adapters: The Angle Polished FC adapter has a narrower key width than the singlemode

or the multimode adapter This prevents a singlemode or multimode connector from being inserted into

the adapter The color of the angled retainer differentiates a singlemode from a multimode adapter.
