ADS Final Polishing Films

Product information "ADS Final Polishing Films"

5 inch Disc; Silicon Dioxide; Ceramic Ferrule; no PSA

The ADS film can be used for final polishing for optical fiber connector end-face.

The ADS film offers longer life cycle for the optical connector polishing.

NTT Advanced Technology Corporation’s ADS series of final polishing films is ideal for the final polish of optical connector end faces and offers longer polishing life cycles. These films polish the end face of an optical connector without scratches, residues or contamination on the ferrule end face.

ADS-NEXT polishing films feature stable polishing force while maintaining final finish performance and achieving an extended life-span. This series of final polishing films attains a high-performance polish with distilled water. Another feature of the ADS-NEXT series is a sharp improvement in the indentation problems that occur especially in 1.25 mm diameter ferrules from repeated use polishing. Even after many usages, ADS-NEXT can still protect against sudden occurrences of fiber indentation.

ADS-MPO series is a new generation of polishing films that has been improved for MPO connector end faces to realize a finishing quality equivalent to that of single fiber polish, leaving no scratches or dirt while at the same time their stable polishing power ensures long life. These films can polish to a convex shape to eliminate dips in the core (Coredip value of “0”) which particularly affects the optical characteristics (IL/RL) of multi mode fiber. APS-MPO final polishing films also realize low return loss, comparable to single connectors, by suppressing subsurface damaged layer to a minimum. With a base thickness of 75 µm, they are available in disc and sheet types.

Key Features:

  • Ideal for Final Polish of MPO Optical Connector End Face
  • High Stability and Long Product Lifetime
  • Prevents Excessive Fiber Undercut after Repeated Use (ADS/ADS-NEXT)
  • Multi Mode Fiber Coredip Value of “0” (ADS-MPO)
  • Low Return Loss Comparable to Single Mode Fiber Connectors (ADS-MPO)
  • Compatible with 1.25, 2.5 mm Diameter Zirconia Ferrules (ADS/ADS-NEXT), MPO Ferrule, All Types (ADS-MPO)
  • Compatible with Multi Mode (OM1/2/3/4, GI50/62.5, etc.) and Single Mode (OS1/2, SM, etc.) Fiber (ADS-MPO)
  • Disc Type (5.0 inch, 127 mm Diameter), Sheet Type (5.5 x 5.5 inch, 140 x 140 mm, ADS-MPO) and Roll Type (5.5 inch, 140 mm x 12 m, ADS/ADS-NEXT) Available

Applications: Final Polish of Fiber Connector End Face

Designed to work with dedicated microfiber tissue, the CLETOP series of fiber optical connector cleaners allows all operators to consistently achieve high quality cleaning without alcohol or other solvents. All CLETOP cleaning tools are palm-sized and lightweight as well as easy and safe to use whether in the engineering lab, on the production line or in the field.With CLETOP A Type, CLETOP B Type, CLETOP MT-RJ Type and CLETOP MPO Type, the CLETOP line of cassette lever type fiber optical connector cleaners provides a line-up of four different variants to match different types of optical connectors. Its dustproof shutter allows you to open a new cleaning surface with a one-action lever no matter what working environment you are in. The cleaning tape in the cassette shows excellent anti-static properties to avoid reattachment of dust to the ferrule after cleaning. The tape is replaceable and cost effective, one cleaning tape can be used for over 400 wipes.The CLETOP-S line of cassette click type fiber optical connector cleaners provides a line-up of two variants to match different types of optical connectors. Also equipped with a dustproof shutter, its light touch opening grip allows for even greater ease of use for the operator. The tape in the cassette shows excellent anti-static properties for static sensitive applications and can be replaced very easily by a "drop-in" cartridge. With its one-push operation, the CLETOP-S line devices are available for both left-handed and right-handed operators.With the CLETOP Stick line of stick type fiber optical connector cleaners, users can easily remove contamination on adapter ferrule end face. Featuring 1.25 mm, 2.0 or 2.5 mm ends (single and mixed/dual end types available), the CLETOP Stick line of fiber optical connector cleaners is ideal for cleaning optical composite connectors (LEMO brand, Tajimi electronics brand, etc.) for video equipment. All four variants are easy to use, very efficient and deliver a consistently high level of cleaning performance. With the CLETOP Stick line, users can easily clean ferrule end-faces inside the plug-in fiber-optic connectors and various adaptors – the sticks are even suitable for cleaning inside adaptors due to dust control.Key Features:Easy to Use and EfficientNo Alcohol or SolventsCassette or Stick Types AvailableCleaning Tape Replaceable and Cost EffectiveExcellent Anti-static PropertiesApplications: Cleaning of Fiber Optical Connector Single Core Plugs (MU, LC, SC, FC), Multi Core Plugs (MT, MPO, MTRJ) and Adapters (MU, LC, SC/FC, FA/FAS); Cleaning of Fiber Optical Connectors for Video Equipment
