Electrical-product-and-services-provider AFL, is adding the FC connector to its FuseConnect family. Utilizing a fusion splicer, the FuseConnect consists of four components. “With a pre-polished ferrule, the termination process eliminates polishing, adhesives and crimping, and minimizes operator error and excess connector scrap,” said the company. 

AFL is also introducing a LC Duplex Clip designed for its FuseConnect and FAST connectors. This connector encompasses a translucent wedge enabling the use of a VFI to provide a pass/fail signal once contact is achieved. FAST connectors are available in SC, ST and LC versions only.
