The main fields of application are:
- Offshore Industry
- Renewable Energy
- Naval Technology
- Marine Research

The series 40 is designed for underwater applications down to 6,000 meters depth.
Low insertion loss is attained by direct connection with polished front surfaces of the optical fibres (PC-contact principle).

It is strongly recommended that the termination of the f/o- / hybrid connectors should be carried out by our specialists.

Receptacles can be ordered with pigtails.

For fitting the fibre contacts special tools are required.

Fibre optical and electrical contacts can be replaced by the customer and are available as individual parts.
Please note that for the different contacts suitable O-ring seals must be fitted.

The endbells are removable for maintenance, and give rearside access to the contacts for cleaning and spare fibers (highly recommended) for retermination if needed.
Endbells with strain relief e.g. kevlar armored cable are available on request.
