Tip For Patchcord Testing

Save time when testing patchcords by carrying out a full cord test. Utilize two reference cords with your cord under test in the center.


Fiber is Fragile?

The truth: Optical cable can also tolerate pulling forces of more than 150lbs., about 6 times more than Cat 5 cable.

Process    

Our process is unique.

We focus on the termination qualities of our products - The ease, speed and effieciency with which our cable can be terminated.  That's important because terminations are time consuming and costly, and any savings of time and effort are profitable to those using TLC cables.  Once in place, all TLC fiber optic cables offer the same, industry wide, outstanding performance by using the industry leading components, such as Corning Optical Fiber.

TLC doesn't stop with innovation, understanding, or quality.  Customization and quick turnaround is our specialty.  Our degree of flexibility is unique to our industry.  Thanks to sophisticated and carefully coordinated inventory and manufacturing operations, we've earned a reputation for having the greatest product delivery system in the industry.

The Terminating Process and TLC Fiber Optic Cable

  • Terminating fiber optic cable is performed in either a manufacturing environment where speed, efficiency and quality are the important factors, or in field locations where hand tooling, and environmental conditions add to the challenge.
     
  • TLC has created products that strip cleanly and maintain a consistent diameter for crimping. Cable must also offer all the performance benefits, including a buffer that is tight enough to support the fiber and a jacket that is flexible, but still able to hold the crimp on the connector.
     
  • This was all started and achieved by partnering with a large customer who provided TLC with a virtual termination laboratory. TLC gets direct feedback of the important attributes responsible for the quality and performance of the termination process. This information applies to both our TLC cable and our competitor's products. Our focused approach has resulted in production of a very high quality product.
     
  • Attention to these details has also made TLC a choice for special custom cable fabrication as well. TLC welcomes your custom colors, printing, customers supplied fiber, or other special features and constructions with small minimums and fast turn around.
