ECO Series™ Fiber Connectors: Why Size Matters

TechLogix ECOConnector™ field-installable fiber optic connectors provide the quick, easy and reliable termination of fiber optic cable – no epoxy, crimping, polishing or proprietary tools required.

Unlike other connectors which are marketed as “one size fits all” and experience signal variability on different cable formats, ECO Series™ connectors are cable construction specific to ensure perfect ferrule alignment and best-in-class long-term reliability. Plus, ECO connectors allow re-termination up to five times and are tamper-resistant when used with an included connector reset jig.

Why Size Matters with Fiber Connectors

Fast and reliable networks, AV over IP distribution, and point-to-point HD video extension requires a solid fiber optic connection with very low signal loss. Historically, this meant fusion splicing connections because the tolerances with mechanical (or field-installable) connectors could vary. LC connectors in particular have a very small 1.25mm ferrule size and any mis-alignment during installation will lead to intermittent performance and signal degradation over time. 

TechLogix ECOConnector™ fiber optic connectors are specifically designed for different cable formats, ensuring proper alignment between the cable fiber strand and the connector optical lens. This not only improves initial signal performance, but it also ensures long-term stability through temperature fluctuations, handling and other sources of system stress. 

ECOConnectors are specific to connector style (LC, SC, ST or FC), fiber type (multimode or single mode), cable type (distribution or zip-cord) and polish (standard or angled).
