Corning Unicam High Performance (0.5dB max) LC Ceramic Singlemode Fiber Optic Connector.
Field-installable UniCam® fiber optic connectors provide a high quality alternative to epoxy and polish connectors. They provide simple, quick and reliable connector installation on site. Fiber stubs are pre-installed in the ferrules of the UniCam connectors at the factory, thus eliminating the critical epoxy and polish operations in the field. This approach also allows the necessary high quality, controlled end-face processing to be performed as part of the production process in the factory, thus reducing field technician influence to a minimum. On site, the stripped and cleaved field fibers are inserted into the UniCam connectors and retained. A mechanical splice inside the connector establishes the low-loss connection between the field fiber and the preinstalled fiber inside the connector.
UniCam® Pretium™ Performance Connectors (SC, ST, LC) offer best-in-class optical performance in a no-epoxy/nopolish (NENP) connector. UniCam Pretium-Performance Multimode Connectors have a 0.1 dB typical insertion loss, and UniCam Pretium-Performance Singlemode Connectors offer 0.2 dB typical insertion loss. That’s optical performance that rivals pigtail fusion splicing and exceeds epoxy-and-polish termination, all in the ultimate craft-friendly connector.
