TE Connectivity Quick Termination Technology program

The Quick Termination Technology program from TE Connectivity outlines the connectivity process of structured cabling solutions for new installers and covers all aspects of cable installation, termination, connection, certification and testing. It is designed around a suite of products which allow the installer to perform quick, consistent and economical cable installations, while addressing the requirements of 40 Gbps copper and 100 Gbps fibre network installations.

The program comprises four key product solutions covering all cable types and cable installations.

Quick fibre termination - LightCrimp Plus. Using the fibre crimper, an installer is able to make fibre-optic terminations using a quick, clean and simple mechanical process. Only a few tools and minimal training are required. The LightCrimp Plus tool allows on-site fibre termination without epoxy, polishing papers, ovens, UV lamps or electrical power.

Quick shielded (STP) copper termination - The AMP-Twist SL tool is capable of terminating copper cable in less than 60 s. The AMP-Twist SL tool terminates all types of SL jacks (110C, AMP-Twist 6S; AMP-Twist 6AS and AMP-Twist 7AS). It strips cable, marks the foil, terminates and cuts eight conductors at once, while maintaining the twisted pair integrity for reliable connections every time. Its lacing fixture also assures simple and effective use.

Quick unshielded (UTP) copper termination - The Multimate termination tool has been designed, manufactured, tested and assembled in Australia. It simultaneously terminates and trims all four pairs of conductors in one action.

Quick reel technology - The ReelSpeed2 is a cable reel created to provide an easier, faster and more efficient method of cable rollout. The Australian-designed cable reel is manufactured with six interlocking pieces that fit together without mechanical fasteners or adhesives. It is produced from polypropylene and glass fibre - making it strong, durable and recyclable. Unlike traditional cardboard reel boxes, the ReelSpeed technology offers reduced pull force and ease of handling, while providing infinite stacking options that suit both the installer’s preferences and the limited space in which they are working.
