Connectorized Cables Assemblies

Every deployed optical fiber needs a connector on each end to enable signal transmission.  So just like a chain is only as strong as its weakest link, every optical connection is only as reliable as its least reliable component, and since you are spending thousands and even millions of dollars on optical fiber and cable deployments, why settle for “cheap” patchcords or pigtails when you can buy connectorized cable assemblies containing fiber that is 100 times more bend tolerant than standard singlemode.  BendBright-XS is the ideal bend tolerant or bend insensitive fiber for cross connecting and patching in central office, head-end or data center applications.  

Draka’s BendBright-XS patchcords and pigtails can be purchased with industry standard optical connectors SC, FC, LC and ST* with either the Ultra polish (UPC) or Angle polish (APC) finishes.  Draka also provides connectors with Hardened Lens Contact (HLC®) technology. Megladon's HLC® Scratchguard® technology process meets the growing need for a scratch resistant, highly durable fiber optic mating surface. The Scratchguard connector technology is a critical step forward in connector quality and durability. It reduces potential connector end-face damage due to handling and repeated use. These benefits can save both capital and operating costs.

Draka also offers industry leading multi-fiber cable assemblies.  So if you need single fiber drop or multi-fiber outside plant cables, flame rated indoor/outdoor cables, or flame rated indoor cables supplied with factory installed, industry standard, connectors then call Draka for competitive pricing and product availability.  Draka stocks a wide variety of cable and fiber types so call your customer service representative for price and availability of the cable assembly that will meet your needs. 

Draka is your one-stop supplier for your highly reliable, low cost, connectorized cable assemblies.

Fiber optic cables can be easily damaged when they're misaligned while being inserted into test equipment or a hardware port. Here is a side by side comparison of Megladon's patch cords and a standard UPC cable. Each was given an identical amount of error when inserted into a port. The HLC cable is undamaged.
