PICABOND

Connectors

• Lightweight, compact, and economical means of splicing multiconductor telephone cable
• Requires 33% less space than other comparable techniques
• No prestripping or cutting required; fast and easy installation

PICABOND connectors provide an economical and reliable means of splicing multiconductor telephone cable.

PICABOND connectors are manufactured from tin-plated phosphor bronze and tin-plated brass with bonded polyester insulation.

Color coding of the insulation is provided to denote wire size and weather-resistant type.

Any solid core wire, 28 to 19 AWG (0.32 – 0.90 mm), with pulp, paper or plastic insulation can be spliced.

Lightweight and compact, PICABOND splices reduce the space required over other splicing techniques by up to 33%.

Straight, butt, tap, and bridge splices can be made with these connectors.

Advantages:

• Saves time — no prestripping or cutting required, can tap without service interruptions, eliminates “turndowns”
• Versatile — Color-coded to indicate size and type of wire; used for butt, straight, bridge and half-tap applications
• Economical — Lower applied cost, minimum training required, higher application rates

Applications:

• Splicing
• Central Office
• Manhole
• Aerial Pole
• CEV
• Pedestal
• Demarcation Points
