Advantages of Pre-Terminated Fiber Optic Cable

1. Advantages of Pre Terminated Fiber

2. Introduction Pre Terminated cabling solutions are ideally suited for data center environments where the cable routes are well defined and where the time for deployment, ease of installation, network reliability and manageability are paramount. The manufacturer should also provide 100% testing in a quality-controlled environment before the cabling is shipped out to the worksite. Make sure the pre-terminated copper or optical fiber purchased through a manufacturer uses components that have been tested and verified by a third party to exceed TIA and IEEE standards. When selecting pre-terminated cable assemblies, be sure to use a reliable provider that can offer services such as guaranteed cabling performance, design assistance, certified contractor training, and the ability to support large quantities of assemblies in the required delivery window.

3. Advantages of Pre-Terminated Fiber are: • Lower Total Cost • Quick-Turn Manufacturing • Faster Deployments • Proven Performance • Online Configuration

4. Lower Total Cost • Our studies have shown that a pre-terminated fiber assembly can reduce overall installation costs by nearly 50% (or more) for (1) 12-strand Pre Terminated fiber assembly. By eliminating rework, realising termination efficiencies, eliminating transmission testing, and all but eliminating the need for termination equipment and consumables, pre-terminated fiber cabling solution can drastically reduce the overall cost of installation.

5. Quick-Turn Manufacturing • Quick turn manufacturing can get you a pre-terminated fiber assembly within two to four days. Pre-terminated fiber is great to help meet short project deadlines and increase the overall speed of deployment. Eliminate 3rd party suppliers and go to the source. You no longer have to wait one, two, or even three weeks to get your custom fiber assemblies. • Pre-terminated cabling provides more consistent channel transmission characteristics, as the experience level of the field technician no longer becomes a factor. Precision factory-termination processes take place in a clean, well-lit environment, unlike termination in uncontrolled field conditions.

6. Faster Deployments • Designed for rapid deployment, pre-terminated fiber cabling eliminates the need for field terminations. This reduces the labour required which in turn enables you to complete the job sooner. You’ll need to do some up front planning, but once you receive your cable, you’re ready to go. • Once pre-terminated cabling is delivered, it can be unpacked, readied for deployment, and connected quickly. In many cases pre-terminated cabling can cut installation time by up to 80% over field terminations.

7. Proven Performance • Mission critical fiber optic networks require the highest level of care when it comes to cable assembly. Field terminations often compromise the overall quality of the cable because of poor air quality, inefficient end face polishing, and poor cleaning and testing protocol. Pre-terminated fiber assemblies should be manufactured in a clean room and go through a series of inspections, including multiple end-face inspections and certification to specific insertion loss/return loss thresholds. • With pre-terminated cable assemblies, transmission testing of assemblies is performed by the manufacturer before shipment, and test reports are included with the assemblies. This leaves only continuity testing for copper and 10% insertion loss and continuity testing for fiber, which reduces the time spent testing on-site.

8. Online Configuration • Ordering a custom pre-terminated fiber cable can be surprisingly easy. Some manufacturers of pre-terminated fiber cable, including Falcon Tech, offer online configurators and SKU building tools. While you’ll need to plan ahead in terms of lengths, connectors, and other options, you can actually plug in what you want and get a SKU in a matter of seconds. • One of the benefits of pre-terminated fibercable is online configurator compared to other configurators is that you actually get a price and can order right then and there instead of calling in and requesting a quote. If you need help configuring a pre-terminated cable, please take advantage of Falcon Tech's free support.

9. Conclusion Pre Terminated cables are the plug-and-play solution for links between switches, servers, and patch panels in the data center. As the computing environments and business needs of organizations differ widely, not every enterprise will find the benefits of pre-terminated systems outweigh the investment. Providing reliable quality, advanced testing system and favorable price, progress of FS.COM has never stopped. We offer a variety of pre-terminated optics including the breakout patch cable, pre-terminated trunk cable and adapter panels. Field-terminated copper and fiber cabling and connectivity systems are generally less costly to purchase in terms of the various components. Just to find a suitable solution system for your own network. Fiber optic cables like SC fiber patch cable and LC to LC patch cord are also needed.
