Acal extends fibre-optic connector offerings
Acal Technology
Fibre-optic connectors
Acal Technology has introduced fibre-optic connectors from Amphenol and a broader range of fibre-optic connectors from Tyco Electronics.
The products allow Acal to support customers throughout their fibre-optic design cycle, from consultancy during the initial concept and design to fibre-optic connector and cable assembly, product training and onsite termination.
The Amphenol connectors are the Hermaphroditic Duplex Miniature (HDM) series, which feature a square-flange receptacle and are available in single- and multi-mode versions.
The second Amphenol part to be added to the Acal range is the HMA Two series of fibre-optic lens connectors, which support daisy chaining of identical connectors and are inter-mateable with equivalent connectors from other manufacturers.
Intended for use in harsh environments, both Amphenol connectors eliminate the need to use inline adapters or to polarise fibre-optic assemblies and include features that enable in-situ cleaning.
Seven series of Tyco connectors have been added to Acal Technology's product range: the high-density Luxcis optical-connect system and MTCT rectangular connectors, Pro-Beam Jr, Mini and Sr field-tactical connectors, expanded beam-cable assemblies and sealed industrial ODVA LC connectors.
Acal Technology's fibre-optic product range and assembly services cover expanded-beam and physical-contact connectors and cables from Amphenol, Tyco and Harting, as well as the ability to assemble fibre-optic connectors and cables from other manufacturers.
