EZ-LC and Qwik-LC Connectors
®
SYSTIMAX
®
offers a complete line of field terminated Anaerobic (EZ-LC)
and no-epoxy, no-polish (Qwik-LC) Connectors
®
. Both types of connectors
are designed for quick, easy and reliable terminations with minimum training.
The EZ-LC Connector
®
is a small form factor connector that is half the size of ST or SC
connectors, yet has superior optical performance and reduced installation time. It uses
the familiar insertion release mechanism similar to an RJ-45 plug and has a pull-proof
design. The EZ-LC Connector
®
allows engineers to design optical fiber infrastructures
suited to the low loss needs of the High-Speed Data Networks. The EZ-LC connector
®
offers a complete connection solution with a product range designed for field termination
onto 900 micron fiber, 1.6 mm fiber cordage, multimode and single-mode fiber.
The Qwik-LC Connectors
®
are no-epoxy, no-polish connectors that feature a mechanical
crimp making fiber terminations faster and easier than typical epoxy terminations. The
Qwik-LC Connector
TM
is ideal for behind the wall (BTW) applications; rapid repairs or for
limited space situations where polishing may be difficult. The Qwik-LC offers a quick and
repeatable termination solution for immediate connectivity on all 900μm fiber types.

Applications
• High speed applications such as
10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Multimode and single-mode
• Central offices, Local Area
Networks (LAN), computer
backplane connections, computer
peripheral interconnections
Features and Benefits:
EZ-LC Connector
®
•
Performance exceeds ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B
standard
•
Superior insertion loss performance
•
Designed to allow for simple and speedy
termination of the connector onto 900 micron
buffered fiber or 1.6 mm cordage
Qwik-LC Connector
®
•
Performance exceeds ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B standard
•
Complete tool kit with cleaning solution, wipes, and
scrap fiber container designed for Qwik setup and
tear-down and comes packaged in a 25 counter
installer pack that is portable and convenient
•
The benefits of this product are further
complimented by being the same overall size
of the standard epoxy/polish LC products

For purposes of determining topology limits for applications support and attenuation limits for link loss, each
Qwik-LC plug adds one splice to the connection. Two cases are possible. 1) When mating a Qwik-LC plug to
an adhesive-type (i.e. epoxy or EZ) plug, the resultant joint is counted as one connection plus one splice. 2)
When mating a Qwik-LC plug to another Qwik-LC plug, the resultant joint is counted as one connection plus
two splices.
