Connectors
GAO Tek’s fiber optic connectors are components used to join and terminate fiber optic cables, enabling the transmission of optical signals between devices or network components. They provide a means to join individual fiber strands together while maintaining alignment and ensuring efficient light transmission.
GAO’S connectors are composed of ferrule, connector body, connector housing, latch, housing alignment sleeve, and protective cap.
The other common names of connectors are couplers, junctions, linkers, interfaces, adapters, joiners, plugs, ports, fasteners, couplings, attachments, sockets, terminals, contactors, interlinks, terminal blocks, patch cords, bridges, joinery, union points, and interconnects.

GAO’s connectors have the following functions:
- Fiber Alignment: GAOTek’s fiber optic connectors ensure precise alignment between optical fibers. They hold the fibers in place and maintain their position to ensure accurate alignment of the fiber cores. Proper alignment is crucial for efficient light transmission and minimizing signal loss.
- Signal Transmission: Our fiber optic connectors provide a means to connect optical fibers together, allowing optical signals to pass from one fiber to another. They maintain the continuity of the fiber path, ensuring the uninterrupted transmission of data, voice, or video signals.
- Mechanical Strength and Protection: Our fiber optic connectors provide mechanical strength and protection to fragile optical fibers. They help prevent fiber bending, stress, or breakage during installation, handling, and mating. Connectors also shield the fiber ends from environmental elements, such as dust, dirt, and moisture, which could degrade signal quality.
- Ease of Installation: Our fiber optic connectors are designed to be easy to install and remove. They typically feature user-friendly coupling mechanisms, such as push-pull, twist-lock, or snap-in, which allow for quick and secure connections.
- Scalability and Modularity: GAO fiber optic connectors support scalability and modularity in fiber optic systems. They allow for the addition or removal of connections as needed without requiring significant changes to the overall infrastructure.
GAO Tek’s connectors are rugged, versatile, and precision measurement instruments. They comply with applicable industry standards such as IEC 61010, IEC 60529, TIA-568, ANSI/TIA-1096-A, and MIL-STD-1344.
