You can get optical fiber stripper from Fiber Optics For Sale Co. >> Single Fiber Coating Structure Depending on fiber’s application, different optical fiber coating designs exist. However, 250um UV coating is the most popular among today’s single mode and multimode bare fibers. The following illustration shows this common design. The polymer coating is a soft, UV cured, urethane acrylate. It has a higher refractive index than the cladding layer, so it can strip out unwanted light. This polymer coating may consist of one or two layers. If there are two layers, the inner layer is called primary coating and

It has a splice capacity of 48 fusion splices. Accessory kits are available

:: What is the difference between UPC and APC fiber optic connectors ? By definition, the above are acronyms for the following: UPC: Ultra Physical Contact APC: Angled Physical Contact The typical reason for the APC connector is a lower light reflectance. Nominal specification are as follows: -55 dB for UPC connectors versus -65 dB for APC connectors This makes APC cables ideal for system components that are light-sensitive. The design of an APC connector results in less insertion loss (0.2 dB) at the interface. :: PC, UPC and APC fiber optic patch cable assemblies Usually we hear about descriptions

LC connector was developed by Lucent Technologies and is a more evolutionary approach to achieving the goals of a SFF (small form factor) connector. LC connector utilizes traditional components of a SC duplex connector having independent ceramic ferrules and housings with the overall size scaled down by one half. The LC family of connectors includes a stand-alone simplex design; a “behind the wall” (BTW) connector; and the duplex connector available in both single mode and multimode
