NEUTRIK® Opticalon® Connectors

During the past few years signal digitalization found its way into the Pro Audio & Entertainment business, revolutionising equipment and applications.

Nowadays one fibre optic cable can transmit hundreds of channels, is light and easy to pass, and avoids grounding problems or noises.

The weak spot has been again the connector. Fragile fibre optic network connectors like the ST, SC, LC etc. are optimised for a one time permanent connection but can not meet the rough requirements of the entertainment industry. Military extended beam lens coupling connectors are very expensive and have the disadvantage of an extensive attenuation increase.

Neutrik^®, as Pro Audio & Video technology leader when it comes to connectors, kept up with the time and developed a suitable fibre optic connection system - the OpticalCon^®. The system is based on a standardized optical LC-Duplex connection but eliminates its weakness and guarantees a safe and rugged connection.

Because of the compatibility with conventional LC connectors it offers the choice of using a cost effective LC connector as a permanent connection (e.g. patch cable) or our rugged OpticalCon^® cable connector for mobile applications. The system enables a run of up to 4 copper wires for power supply or any data signal, a special SMPTE-version has been optimized for broadcast applications and offers an additional ground-shell contact. The chassis connector acts as “feed through” and guarantees a simple installation by simply connecting a conventional LC-Duplex connector (e.g. with a permanent installation cable) on the rear.

The cable connector comes pre-assembled onto a choice of mobile field cables, currently 5 types and their variations (Multimode, Singlemode, APC) can be offered in any length.
