EL Series Optical Fiber Patch Cords
The Expanded Light DIN connect patch cord is similar in function to the traditional BNC to
BNC installed copper wiring terminated to the rear of a copper jackfield. This patch cord
has an EL-DIN connector on one end and an industry standard LC, SC, FC, ST, (or any
single or multi-mode) fiber connector on the other end. The EL-DIN connector
end is attached to the rear of the EL-Video Jack and the Kevlar
reinforced fiber is routed to the termination point at the
router, or traditional fiber distribution frame.
The Expanded Light Quick Connect (EL-QC) is similar in function to a copper video patch
cord. With the EL-QC connector on either end of a 5mm bend-insensitive rugged fiber,
when inserted into the front of the EL Optical Fiber Video Jack, it will automatically
switch the optical signal being routed through the back of the video jack
to the front connectors.

Product Benefits
Expanded Light beam connection scheme eliminates issues with dirt and scratches
common with single-mode and multi-mode fiber connections.
Non contact optical connection eliminates deterioration of insertion and return loss
over matings; no cleaning required.
Rugged cable jacket offers same physical usage characteristics as copper.
Kevlar reinforcement provides high pull strength.
Bend-insensitive fiber allows for small bend radius without any increased insertion
loss.
Fiber connection is “signal agnostic” allowing video, data, audio, internet protocol,
analog, or any other signal to be transmitted.
Front push/pull connection allows easy insertion and withdrawal.
Components made of high-strength stainless steel.
Coated optics for low loss connections.
