Fischer Connectors push-pull FibreOptic interconnecting solution

The Fischer Connectors push-pull FibreOptic interconnecting solution is designed for good optical performance in extreme environments. The interconnecting technology offers the quality and stability needed for an optical link combined with robustness, easy mating and cleaning.

With two (FO2) or four (FO4) optical channels, the fibre solution is quick and easy to clean thanks to a removable monoblock mate adapter and the unmated connectors can be rinsed freely under water or in an ultrasound bath. The connector will perform well in harsh and extreme environments. It has a high ingress protection of IP68 (2 m/24 h) when mated and IP67 in unmated conditions. In addition, its optical performance is insensitive to mechanical strain on the connector. The spring optical contacts employed allow for filtering out any stress applied to the connector housings while keeping the typical advantage of a push-pull solution - quick, safe and easy locking.

The connector is suitable for a range of fields including transport and mobility, telecom, energy, defence and security, broadcast, construction and infrastructure and medical devices.

Key specifications include: IP68 (2 m/24 h) mated and IP67 (1 m/30 min) unmated ingress protection; extreme environment FibreOptic solution (Norm IEC 61753-1 Cat. E); multichannel (2 and 4), SM and MM optical fibres, UPC and APC polishing; push-pull mating plugs and receptacles; optional gas tight panel receptacles (IP68 or <10-6 mbar l/s); and removable monoblock mate adapter.
