Are arduous operating conditions challenging your fiber optic interconnections? Fischer Suppliers of connectors introduces an advanced ruggedized housing solution to protect standard connectors used in harsh environments.

Standard fibre optic connectors - MTP/MPO, MTRJ, LC, SC, etc - are designed for normal environments, mostly indoor in a temperature controlled place. Now, with the new ruggedized housing developed by Fischer Connectors, it is possible to extend their usage into demanding conditions such as under water, in corrosive environment, or in extreme climates.

Lightweight, compact, Fischer Connectors’ advanced housing professional seals standard connections up to IP68, and protects them against corrosion and mechanical shocks. Its circular push-pull design with keying system is ideal for frequent connect/disconnect operations and blind mating. Additionally, a calibrated locking system is integrated to secure connections against accidental pull on the cable. Available in PEEK or in aluminium, the housing is very easily added on as it can be retrofitted to existing cable installations.

Professional buildings, industrial bridges, dams, ships, floating rigs or aircrafts, many outdoor structures can be equipped with a fiber-based transmission system. In those difficult operating conditions, connectors have a special role to play in the protection of the fibers. Fischer Connectors can help you develop the solution that will optimize the performances of your specific application. For more information, contact us at rugged-solutions@fischerconnectors.ch
