Impact Mount™ Technology is a radial compression fit of a ductile metal around a cylindrical glass surface . The need to metallize optical fiber is eliminated by Impact Mount™ Technology (IMT). The IMT is a unique, patented design that assures reliable terminations time after time by securing the glass fiber within the metal ferrule. This illustration depicts the single fiber ferrule IMT process. Attachment of metal ferrules to the fiber(s) occurs in one fast mechanical action. This action, called the impact, occurs between the stripped fiber and the ferrule using a precision impact mount die. The IMT connectors/ferrules are made from various metal alloys, the most common types being stainless steel and copper-nickel. The main body of the connector can be all-metal or constructed with glass-reinforced polymer. For a single fiber operation, the result easily creates a hermetic seal between the fiber and the ferrule.

Currently, in the telecom industry, technology is far ahead of the marketplace . Of the three design drivers - cost, performance, and reliability -  cost heavily dominates the list. Market dynamics are pressuring manufacturers to produce fiber optic components at very low cost; but they cannot support the economy of scale that traditionally accompanies high volume manufacturing. There is, however, still demand for performance and reliability at the right price. The emerging importance of manufacturing innovation to component and module performance represents a paradigm shift for the optical communications industry. Impact Mount™ Technology (IMT), and its progeny, HeptoPort™, typifies this paradigm shift. Multiple ADMs, DWDM selectors, isolators, interleavers, and many other functions can be incorporated in a single component, sharing the cost of expensive elements such as filters, lenses, etc. Offering unparalleled self-alignment features with significant cost reduction for the module designer, HeptoPort™ opens an entirely new set of physical design options for the optical networking industry.

Patented Technology for the Fiber Optics Industry
Valdor brings a twenty-year legacy of quality and technology innovation to the marketplace. The IMT technology underpinning our legacy is based on the premise that MARKETS RESPOND TO LOW COST OF MANUFACTURING AND HIGH YIELD.

Valdor has a unique breakthrough technology in fiber optics. In early 2000, when technology projects enjoyed unprecedented popularity, the Company's stock price rose from $0.30 to $14.00 in less than two months primarily on the strength of R&D and potential. This R&D is now complete and the technology is ready for market. The Company is in production and has modest annual sales of about US$300,000. The vast majority of high-flying technology companies of the 1995/2000 era no longer exist; Valdor has not only survived, it has grown past the R&D stage, as a new-generation technology company, and is progressing on the continuum to profitability.
VALDOR TECHNOLOGY INTERNATIONAL INC. (VTI-V) FEATURES:

  1. Fiber optics is the future of communications. Fiber optic connectors are a major profit center within this market.

  2. The basic product line of Valdor is all-mechanical, field installable fiber optic connectors that are revolutionary in that they do not require epoxies or index matching gels.

  3. The annual global market for fiber optic connectors is estimated to be US$2 billion. The annual growth rate is estimated to be nearly 10‰.

  4. There are two technologies that Valdor has recently developed into revolutionary, next-generation products: (1) the Heptoport, (2) the Omega Enclosure.

  5. The CEO / President, Dr. Michel Rondeau, is well known and highly respected world-wide in the fiber optics industry.

  6. The Valdor marketing focus is not to displace other conventional technologies that are represented by wealthy, established companies. The Valdor focus is niche markets where, because of technical advantages, Valdor is the only solution.

  7. The two major players in Valdor’s industry are Corning and 3M. Unbiased third parties have tested and confirmed that technologically the Valdor connectors are significantly or dramatically superior to these conventional connectors.

  8. Directors and close associates own more than 65% of the fully diluted Valdor stock.

  9. Valdor holds several patents on its connector technology in strategic global regions.

  10. It is estimated that more than US$20 million has been spent in R & D to bring the Company to its current state.

  11. Valdor is in discussions with several major companies that, in the near term, could place substantial orders.

  12. Upon achieving a market penetration of between 0.5% and 2.5%, Valdor could become a takeover target for major companies that direct sell fiber optic products and / or services.



Valdor Technology International Inc.

Patented technology for the Fiber Optics Industry

Valdor Technology International Inc. (VTI-TSXV) is a fiber optics component company

specializing in the design and manufacturing of its patented Impact Mount™ Technology (IMT) all-metalepoxyless field termination connectors, mechanical splices, and installation kits. Every fiber optic cable must  end with a connector or splice. ElectroniCast Consultants www.electronicastconsultants.com has forecast that the global market for connectors and mechanical splices is projected to grow from $1.4 billion in 2006 to $3.4 billion in 2011. Valdor’s unique IMT connectors, mechanical splices, and installation kits have major advantages in many fiber optic markets. Additionally, Valdor’s patented IMT connectors are the only connectors suitable for many applications in the fiber optic industry.
