Neutrik opticalCON Quad Lite Singlemode Cable
4-channel fibre system improved bending performance due to the new tactical fibre design, black matt outer jacket, available in multi- and single-mode (PC or APC).
Besides extreme applications, there is also a demand for quality fibre connections for semi-rugged applications as e.g. patching, or permanent installations. Such applications require a focus on costs and a sealing shutter is not required. The opticalCON QUAD LITE offers high performance and a cost-effective, compact, and lightweight design. It is fully compatible with the standard opticalCON QUAD chassis connector.
The opticalCON QUAD LITE cable connector accommodates a standard optical 1.25 mm ferrule in durable plastic housing. It features a spring-loaded push-pull locking mechanism and excellent cable retention utilizing aramid yarn. The connector comes pre-assembled and is not available as a single component. The cable is available in different lengths and comes with air spool packaging.
Tactical Patch Cable
Conventional patch cables are sensitive in terms of undercutting the minimum bending radius and lateral pressure. Neutrik’s tactical patch cables contain a unique fibre design including a protection layer which allows bending with minimal radius and increased lateral pressure. Therefore the tactical patch cables are the right choice for permanent or semi-permanent applications.
