Neutrik has introduced the OpticalCon series connectors that increase the reliability for fiber-optic connections. The OpticalCon cable connector comes pre-assembled with a choice of three mobile field cables, which can be ordered at almost any length.
The new system is based on a standard optical LC-Duplex connection, enabling up to four copper wires to run power or data signals through. A special SMPTE-version has been optimized for broadcast applications, providing an additional ground-shell contact.
The OpticalCon features a rugged connection, all metal housing and heavy-duty cable retention. The cables are protected from dust and dirt through automatic sealing covers and gaskets. OpticalCon uses conventional LC connectors, which are easy to clean, and has a push-pull locking mechanism. In addition, the colored labeling plates are included to identify the fiber mode.
