Fiber Optic Quick Connectors VS Cold Connectors

The continuous update and progress of optical communication technology has driven the large-scale development of FTTH (Fiber to the Home), which has promoted the continuous expansion of the market scale of optical fiber quick connectors. In the process of optical fiber wiring, there are generally two ways to connect optical fibers. One is optical fiber thermal fusion, which is more complicated to operate, and is mostly used in large-scale long-distance optical signal transmission; the other is to use The quick connector is used for continuous connection, and its small size is easy to operate, and the optical fiber link can be easily connected even in a small space. It is consistent with the construction and deployment characteristics of FTTH, so the optical fiber fast connection machine is widely used in FTTH network deployment. In particular, SC fiber optic connectors are widely used in field wiring and FTTH because of their high termination success rate and strong stability.

The installation of the optical fiber quick connector is very simple, but it should be noted that the optical fiber quick connector is very susceptible to pollution and damage, resulting in damage to the performance of the optical fiber. During the installation process, it should be kept away from dust and contaminants, and the action should be slow when inserting.

The optical fiber cold splice has the same structure principle as the embedded optical fiber connector, and belongs to the sub-product of the optical fiber quick connector. Because its shape is similar to the quick connector, many people are stupid and unclear about the two.

The difference between the cold splice and the optical fiber quick connector is that it has no movable plug. It is used to directly fix the optical link node when the optical fiber is connected to the optical fiber or the optical fiber and the pigtail. The contact loss is about 0.1dB~0.2 dB. It is mainly used for indoor wiring or wiring in narrow spaces, making installation more convenient and flexible.

The optical fiber quick connector is an effective tool for fast optical fiber termination. Its interior is composed of pre-polished pins and mechanical connectors. It does not need to use an optical fiber fusion splicer, nor does it need to be polished, through a simple The connection tool can realize the docking of the optical fiber link. The optical fiber quick connector can adapt to a variety of wiring environments, without other forms of protection, and has extremely low loss of optical signals. It is an important guarantee for the realization of FTTH optical fiber wiring.
