Advanced Manufacturing Processes
Advanced manufacturing processes allow us to meet some of the strictest specifications in the industry
at prices comparable to those of less stringently produced components. ADC’s innovative polishing
techniques, rigorous evaluation of epoxies, serialized tracking and the strictest testing processes make us
an industry leader in fiber components.
Quality Assurance
ADC tests every singlemode connector and applies a bar code traceable to the exact insertion loss and
return loss for that termination. This aids in the documentation of the exact losses in the network.
The bar code system also stores information about the materials used and the manufacturing process
applied to produce the patch cord. These records are retained for your reference for over three years.
ADC's polishing process ensures consistently low insertion and return loss values. Insertion and return
loss values are affected by the endface geometries of the fiber connector. ADC's fiber assemblies meet
TelcordiaGR-326industryrequirementsforqualityandperformance.
Specifications
All patch cords undergo stringent testing for both insertion loss, return loss and reflectance at the
factory before shipment to ensure that only quality product is delivered to the customer.
