GR-326 Telcordia testing affirms manufacturing
quality standards meet stringent industry requirements
Clearfield, Inc. (NASDAQ:CLFD), the specialist in fiber
management for communication service providers, today announced
that its fiber termination process used to manufacture Clearfield
LC/UPC 900 μm 1.6 mm and 2.0 mm jumpers and fiber assemblies have
been tested by an independent test lab compliant to the Telcordia,
GR-326-Core requirements. With the Telcordia GR-326 achievement,
Clearfield now provides maximum assurance for the Tier 1
telecommunications market that requires the highest standards for
manufacturing processes, procedures and quality components.
As major service providers seek to provide higher density in
their networks with a smaller form factor connector, many opt to
use LC/UPC jumpers and fiber assemblies in an Outside Plant (OSP)
environment. The Clearfield LC/UPC connectors surpassed rigorous
testing to meet a myriad of environmental, handling, use and
mechanical functions to survive the stresses in the OSP
environment.
“Successfully securing the certifications required to meet the
needs of national carriers and cable operators is a sign that our
strategy and execution is working,” said Cheri Beranek, Clearfield
president and CEO. “It is yet another sign that we are
well-positioned to build the infrastructure needed for Internet of
Things device connectivity, 5G and our fiber-driven future.”
