3M Hot Melt connectors have adhesive already applied to the connector so that no application of epoxy is needed. That means you don't need a syringe or an applicator and no mixing. That saves time and money! A Hot Melt kit is available with all the tools you need to connectorize. ST stands for straight tip and was originally designed by AT&T. The ST type Hot Melt fiber optic connector from 3M uses a bayonet style coupling mechanism for latching. NCI also carries the 3M Push Pull Hot Melt connector. It connects with a push and disconnects with a pull. In order to disconnect you must pull on the housing of the connector so don't worry about someone pulling on the cable. Great in areas where less space is available. Converting to duplex is a snap! Simply clip together the 2 connectors using the duplex clips.
3M's SC type Hot Melt connector has a push-pull coupling mechanism for ease of installation. FC connectors use a threaded keyed design. The anti-rotation key prevents fiber endface damage and rotational sensitivity and the floating ferrule prevents shock and vibration.
3M's new crimplok connector provides quick and easy installation and superior performance. Installs in about 2 minutes. The fiber passes thru the back of the connector beyond the end of the activation cap. Pressing the cap locking arm closes the metal element around the fiber. AMP's Lightcrimp connector uses precision molding and crimping to provide a strong and reliable termination. This is done with a 2-step crimp, cleave and 30 second polish. A no-epoxy installation in less than 2 minutes.

NCI's fixed attenuators are shaped like washers and are fitted at the light source. The mated connectors are spaced causing attenuation. Fixed attenuators can be placed on more than one mated location thereby increasing total attenuation. Each colored attenuator is a different width so each one has different dB values. The table shows typical loss but specific loss is not set because it varies depending on different conditions. NCI's fixed attenuators are sold individually or in packs. Packets of 5 different widths are available, so you can find out what size you need. After you have the right width, you order just the width you need in packs or individually. Typical attenuation (850nm / 1300nm): Silver 6.0/11.7 dB, Gold 5.5/11.3 dB, Green 4.8/10.2 dB, Blue 3.6/9.1 dB, Red 2.5/7.4 dB.

Portable unit has an LCD display and is not much bigger than a video cassette. Works with both singlemode and multimode with coating diameters of ≤ 250µm. Provides optical port for pigtail usage. System comes with five pigtail adapters: ST, SC, FC, D4 and Biconic. Also included are instructions and a carrying case. Operates with a 4mw laser that transmits 670nm of red light. The Visual Fault Finder actually lets you see if there are breaks or macrobends in the fiber because the intensity of light is that strong. The red laser light can be seen through a 3mm PVC jacket if there is a break or macro-bend in the cable. Works where OTDR cannot because of dead zones. Great for detecting, isolating and optimizing you fiber breaks. Also works as a continuity tester. Operates on one 9v battery (included). OPTIMIZED FOR SINGLEMODE =SM OPTIMIZED FOR MULTIMODE =MM
