Fiber optic cable specifications and source
CSP, Inc. can provide you with reliable fiber assemblies certified to function properly with DigiBoard
equipment.
Fiber is the best solution for transmitting large amounts of data over long distances at high speeds
without interference
or lost data caused by outside factors such as weather, radio frequency signals or other electrical noise.
The ST connector provides these features as well as strong performance and reliability characteristics.
The ST connector
also helps maintain close tolerances when mating connectors in an adapter. The ST connector is easily
recognizable because
of its bayonet style attachment/detachment mechanism.
The ST also offers superior loss characteristics because the ferrules are made of stainless steel or
ceramic and the connector
has a spring-loaded mating system that exerts consistent pressure on the ferrule tip when inserted in an
active device or an adjoining
fiber. These impressive characteristics have allowed the ST connector to become the most widely used
connector in Local
Area Networks (LANs).
CSP fiber optic assemblies are made at the length you specify with or without an optional pulling eye
to meet your individual requirements.
CSP assemblies are made with FDDI grade fiber and tested to meet EIA/FOTP specifications. CSP
complies with the requirements
of the 1990 National Electrical Code (NEC) for Optical Fiber Cables - Article 770.
