opticalCON DUO LOW VOLTAGE HYBRID

Cost effective fiber optic hybrid cable solution, great SMPTE cable alternative if only low voltage is required. Assembled ultra-flexible and lightweight (65 kg/km) low voltage camera / SM hybrid cable with 2 single-mode fibers and 2 AWG16 copper conductors, aramid yard cable retention. Optimized for camera link systems (e.g. for ENG / SNG¹), camera adapter systems, camera cranes and powered drop down converter boxes for broadcast applications where power <50V is required.

The opticalCON DUO cable connector accommodates a standard optical LC-Duplex connector in a ruggedized and durable all-metal housing. It features a spring loaded push-pull locking mechanism and an excellent cable retention utilizing aramid yarn. The optical connection is exceptional well protected against dirt and dust by an automatically operated sealing cover.
The cable connector comes pre-assembled and is not available as a single component. The cable is available in different lengths and is packed either in a case, on drum or airspool.
