Description
The FiberTech® Graded-index Polymer Clad Fiber series, known as GIPC, represents a significant advancement in multimode fiber technology. Designed specifically for challenging environmental conditions, these fibers are ideal for short to medium distance communications. The series includes the GIPC50 and GIPC62 models, which are engineered to meet robust design requirements while delivering the bandwidth performance of standard telecommunications fibers, aligning with OM2 and OM1 standards respectively.
One of the standout features of the GIPC fiber series is its 200 µm form factor. This design allows the fiber to endure a mechanical load three times greater than that of a traditional 125 µm diameter standard fiber, supporting up to 30 N compared to the usual 10 N. This robustness makes the GIPC fibers a reliable choice for demanding applications, where durability and performance are critical.
The fibers are equipped with a special coating that optimizes thermal performance, ensuring reliability across various temperature ranges. The 500 µm ETFE buffer material is designed for easy removal, facilitating quick and cost-efficient handling. This feature, combined with the fiber's excellent geometry, simplifies the crimp-and-cleave assembly process, making it an attractive option for those seeking efficiency and ease of use in fiber optic installations.
