Fiber Optic Cleaning | Patch Cables | Fusion Splicers | Fiber Connector Termination | Test Equipment
Fiber Optic technology uses long glass fibers to transmit data over long distances and at higher bandwidths than other forms of communication. Specialized Products offers a selection of Fiber Optic Tools to fit any job. We stock Cleaning Products, Patch Cables, Splicing and Termination Products as well as Fiber Hand Tools and Test Equipment. We provide only quality products from well-known brands such as Chemtronics, CLETOP, Fluke Networks, EXFO, Greenlee, 3M, Ideal and many more.
Fiber Optic technology is widely used in the telecommunication industry. We carry fiber optic cleaners designed to clean fiber optic connections to maintain proper communication quality. Over time debris builds up in bulkhead adapters, fiber optic patch cables and other fiber connections that are repeatedly connected and disconnected. This debris can cause signal loss as well as interrupt communication and data transfer. There are three styles of fiber optic cleaning which include dry cleaning without the use of solvent, wet cleaning with solvent, and combination cleaning that will incorporate the two. In stock and ready to ship are our cassette cleaners, bulkhead cleaners and a vast selection of fiber optic cleaning tools and fiber cleaning kits. Specialized Products offers a variety of fiber optic cleaning solutions from top brands like Fluke Networks, CLETOP, US Conec, Noyes Fiber and Chemtronics.
Fiber Optic Patch Cables are commonly used at computer work stations, patch panels and optical cross connect distribution centers. Fiber cables are terminated with fiber optic connectors on each end. Specialized Products offers Single Mode Fiber Optic Patch Cables and Multimode Fiber Optic Patch Cables with a variety of connector combinations including FC, SC, ST, LC and MTRJ.
Fiber Splicing is the process of connecting two fibers together. This can be done by use of mechanical splices or fusion splicing. Mechanical Splices provide an emergency or temporary restoration solution which requires no adhesives or epoxy. Fibers are aligned and held in place with a mechanical splice sleeve so light can travel from one fiber to another. For a more permanent solution to repairing or connecting fiber, Specialized Products features Fusion Splicers from AFL Telecommunications–Fujikura. They are known for manufacturing the most reliable and portable fusion splicers in the industry. Splicers use heat generated from an electronic arc to weld optical fibers together. Reliable Fusion Splicers ensure low splice loss when working with all common types of fiber. Specialized also stocks Fiber Splicing Kits from brand names such as UNICAM, which provide the tools, components and fiber cleaning products required when fiber splicing.
Fiber Termination & Fiber Optic Connectors
Specialized Products offers all the necessary products for terminating single mode and multimode fiber such as fiber optic connectors, TKT UNICAM PFC Kits and various consumables. Our complete selection of fiber optic connectors includes LC, ST, SC, FC, MTRJ connectors. These low-cost fiber optic connectors are available in standard epoxy, anaerobic and crimp types from a variety of manufacturers. To compliment our standard fiber optic connectors, we stock epoxy curing ovens, polishing film, fiber optic cleavers, wire strippers, crimpers, cable sheath cutters, and all other necessary fiber optic tools We also carry a comprehensive range of the very popular field-installable fiber optic connectors that don’t require polishing or cleaving including Corning Unicam Connectors, 3M Hot Melt Connectors and Corning OptiSnap Connectors.
Specialized Products stocks top quality Fiber Optic Test Equipment designed for the communications industry. Optical Power Meters, Fiber Light Sources, Fiber Scopes and OTDRs are just a few of the products we carry that are commonly used for fiber optic testing.
An optical power meter can be used alone to measure optical fiber power or combined with a fiber light source or laser light source to determine fiber optic loss. Fiber optic loss test kits are available to test single mode and multimode fiber. Test sets are indispensable when working with fiber installation and maintenance. For more extensive troubleshooting, data analysis and fiber certification when dealing with the performance of a fiber infrastructure, Specialized Products has a large selection of optical time domain reflectometers – OTDRs – to fit your needs.
Fiber Scopes, or fiber inspection scopes, are designed to closely inspect fiber connectors and bulkhead adapters. SPC offers multiple designs including Video Inspection Scopes, fiber inspection probes that can be hooked to a PC as well as units with their own handheld displays. Fiber Scopes are available from 100X to 400X magnifications from popular manufacturers such as EXFO, Fluke Networks, JDSU, Noyes Fiber and SPCfiber. |
