With nearly 30 years of proven innovation, US Conec continues to redefine the optical interconnect industry with next generation high density connectivity solutions. Product developments include MT ferrules, MTP® & MTP® PRO solutions, MXC®, PRIZM® MT & PRIZM® LightTurn® lensed ferrule technology, ELiMENT™ single fiber, MDC connectors, and IBC™ cleaners.
US Conec, a developer of high-density optical interconnects, has released its next-generation PRIZM LightTurn mechanical-optical interface (MOI) 25+ Gbps, which has been optimised for embedded module applications based on 25Gb/s vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs).
The PRISM LightTurn MOI contains an array of collimating lenses to couple light between the board-mounted active components and a detachable fibre-optic connector, such as US Conec’s PRIZM LightTurn connector, which uses expanded-beam lensed ferrule technology.
US Conec, a developer of optical interconnects, has unveiled the new MTP-16 multi-fibre optical connector at ECOC 2015 in Valencia, Spain. The MTP-16 connector offers the highest density physical contact for multi-fibre connector format on the market today, the company says.
“Comprised of the proven US Conec MT Elite ferrule technology, the MTP-16 connector hardware is ideal for structured cabling applications supporting parallel or duplex links that require low insertion loss,” said Shelly Buchter, product manager at US Conec.
US Conec, a global leader in the design and development of high-density optical interconnections, announces the immediate availability of singlemode pre-angled thermoplastic MT ferrules. The unique pre-angled design eliminates a polishing fixture, minimising the polishing time during the production process, all while improving the overall performance of the MT ferrule.

The pre-angled design eliminates a polishing fixture, minimising the polishing time during the production process, while improving the overall performance of the MT ferrule.
Available in 12- and 24-fibre counts, the single-mode, pre-angled MT ferrules are compatible with MTP brand MPO connector components and are fully compliant with IEC 61754-5 and IEC 61754-7 standards.
US Conec has announced that the availability of the MXC multi-fibre connector will coincide with OFC 2014. Compared to existing optical connector solutions, the plug and receptacle design provides increased density, lower cost, and fewer components – making it suitable for new equipment card edge requirements driven by implementation of embedded, mid-board optics modules, the company says. PCB space consumption on the inside of the equipment is minimised by combining the traditional adapter and on-card plug into one simple, condensed, single piece housing.
Latin America continues to be a prolific market with very real possibilities of expansion for FTTH deployment.

The unique challenges brought by the pandemic and modern technology are driving significant and varied changes worldwide in how cable television network operators use technology.
Broadband networks are undeniably at peak demand, with the current global crisis providing the industry with its own ‘new normal’, with consumer’s altered perception of ‘normal’ bandwidth levels.
Complementary metal-oxidesemiconductor (CMOS) technology has come a long way since its invention in 1963 by Frank Wanlass during his time employed at Fairchild semiconductor.
While there has long been a recognised need for fair and reliable connectivity for all, the current pandemic has accelerated the urgency at which this must take place.
