CANFORD OPTICALCON QUAD to HMA Adapter, SM

A Range of OpticalCon to HMA fibre converters, available in 2 Channel and 4 channel options, in either single-mode or multi-mode configuration.

The enclosures are D-Series sized, black anodised aluminium, with each connector mounting directly to ends of the extrusion.

Extruded Box Dimensions:

100(l) x 26(w) x 31(h)mm

Opticalcon connectors are designed around the duplex LC optical connector, housed in a rugged latching body. Opticalcon Duo types, will accept either Opticalcon Duo assemblies or standard LC connectors at the front face. Fibres within the chassis connectors are protected from dirt, when un-mated, by integral, automatic, sealing-shutters with silicone gaskets, which lift when the connectors are mated. The shutters also block laser emission, should a source be left switched on inadvertently. These boxes use Opticalcon Duo NO2-4FDW-A/1 (46-4004) types.

Fibreco HMA XLR bulkhead expanded beam fiber optic connectors used have been designed as an affordable yet reliable solution for use in rugged and harsh environment applications. Available in 2 or 4 channel options, they are a fully hermaphroditic connector providing high performance at a low cost.

Canford are a certified assembler of both the Neutrik OpticalCON range and Fibreco HMA connectors.

As part of the final test process Canford carry out both insertion and return loss measurement, as well as interferometry measurement on all Fibre terminations. Although some termination facilities do not use interferometry and rely merely on insertion and return loss testing to determine results Canford will always carry out interferometry as standard. Test results including 3D imagery of terminations can be supplied upon request.

Interferometry measures three critical dimensions required for continued reliability, end shape (radius of curvature measured in mm), the polished apex offset (measured in um) and fibre height (measured in nm). These three parameters all fall within tight industry standards which guarantees reliability when mating random connectors.
