Compression Connections Telecommunication Compression Connectors The industry’s first choice in compression connectors... BURNDY ® provides a complete selection of one and two hole compression’s terminals, H-taps, C-taps, and other compression connection products specifically engineered tomeet the demanding applications of both theCentral Office andWireless communications markets. All of the BURNDY compression products are designed for reliable and controllable electricalconnections.Allconnectorsaremadefromhighconductivityelectrolyticcopper and operate at cooler temperatures than the conductor on which they are installed. The connectors are normally tin-plated, lead-plated, or plated with a proprietary BURNDY ® brite finish to provide the industry standard in long-lasting corrosion resistance. The complete installation is fully inspectable and UL Listed when installed with BURNDY ® dies. Every die in the system is color-coded and provides die index embossment for complete inspectability. BURNDY ® Tooling... the right choice for the job! BURNDY ® tooling installs a wide range of connectors, is reliable, cost effective, and precision engineered for durable, long-lasting service and quality connections. BURNDY compression tooling system ranges from full cycle ratchet hand tools to 12 and 15 ton hydraulically-powered HYPRESS™ heads. Hydraulic tools are available in self-contained, battery powered, and AC service electrically powered pump and remote head designs to meet all possible installation situations.

Telecommunication Connectors General Information

The Circumferential Crimp... The BURNDY ® circumferential crimp provides a solid, homogenous connection, with high pull out values and is rated for high voltage applications, more than sufficient for the 48V DC operating voltage common in the telecom market. In addition the circumferential crimp doesn’t require the removal of the copper flash produced by other die systems. This not only saves time in installation but removes a potential safety hazard from the job. All of the dies in the system are color-coded to match the connectors and feature die index and die number matching to the connector for ease of installation.

Circumferential compression is solid and symmetrical. No sharp flash.

NOTE: Field bending straight lugs to achieve an angular connection will voide UL Listing / CSA Certifications and BURNDY will not be liable for the connection.
