Fiber cores

Overview

Bandwidth that ignores EMI.

Low-loss optical transmission for high-speed data, imaging and communication systems. Fiber channels can share one assembly with power, Ethernet and coolant.

Design advantages

  • Single-mode and multi-mode options
  • 1-core, 2–4-core and 5+-core designs
  • Immune to electromagnetic interference
  • FC and SC connectors (others to order)
  • Stainless steel housing

Technical specifications

Standard ranges — built to your requirement.

Values marked customizable can be changed to suit your application; outline and mounting are made to order.
