4-channel PBJR connector-SC/PC, AXAI, 9/OS2

ProBeam Jr. ruggedized connectors for optical communication in rough environments within defense and industry.

• For establishing temporary communications in the field
• For communications within industry, ships and offshore with open outdoor connector points
• 4 fibre
• Delivered as single mode 9/125, multi-mode 50/125 and multi-mode 62.5/125 µm
• Is delivered with SC connector in the other end for internal cabling

A ProBeam system normally consists of a given length of tactical cable with ProBeam jr. plugs in both ends. This is connected to the ProBeam Jr. bulkhead connector which normally is mounted on a wall. The other end of the panel connectors comes with a length of data cable with a standard data connector like SC for the internal cabling.
