Optical Connector Relishes Rough Environments

The latest LC2+ optical interconnects employ a metal connector body and latch version of the LC connector system. They provide an enhanced latch retention system and a specific high temperature strain relief boot that works in conjunction with the latest high temperature enhanced performance aerospace grade fiber optic cables and sealing features to protect from moisture propagation going through the connector. Fully compatible with all LC form factor connectors, adapters, active devices and tooling, the optical simplex and duplex connectors are available for multi-mode, single-mode, and APC applications. Additionally, the LC2+ interconnects can incorporate Polymicro Technologies’ large core specialty fibers. MOLEX INC., Lisle, IL. (800) 786-6539.
