TLC focuses on the termination qualities and overall performance of our products – The ease, speed and efficiency with which our cable can be terminated as well as the overall performance of the assembly. These areas are extremely important as terminations are time-consuming and costly, and any savings of time and effort are profitable to those using TLC cables. Once in place, all TLC fiber optic cables offer the same, industry-wide, outstanding performance by using the industry leading components, such as Corning Optical Fiber.

The Terminating Process and TLC Fiber Optic Cable

• Terminating fiber optic cable is performed in a manufacturing environment where speed, efficiency, and quality are the important factors, or in field locations where hand tooling and environmental conditions add to the challenge.
• TLC has created products that strip cleanly and maintain a consistent diameter for crimping. Cable must also offer all the performance benefits, including a buffer that is tight enough to support the fiber and a jacket that is flexible, but still robust enough to support all terminating processes.
• By having its own in-house laboratory, TLC is able to analyze direct feedback of the important attributes responsible for the quality and performance of the termination process. Our focused approach has resulted in the production consistent, high-quality products.
• Attention to these details has also made TLC a leading choice for special custom cable fabrication. TLC welcomes your custom colors, printing, customers supplied fiber, or other special features and constructions with small minimums and fast turnaround.
