The WBT13 connectors, featuring expanded beam technology, hermaphroditic connection, rugged construction for field deployment have been designed for harsh environment applications such as military tactical communications, avionics, offshore systems, outside broadcast, mining and plant.

The expanded beam technology uses expanded and collimated beams to couple optical fibres without any contact. It could allow for optics to be used in areas that have been quite restrictive due to the presence of damage or contamination at the fibre end. Hermaphroditic connector design enables fast deployment by daisy-chaining multiple cable segments.

  • Advanced expanded beam technology
  • Rugged field-deployable fibre optic connector
  • Hermaphroditic interconnection
  • 2 to 4 Optical Channels for Single or Multi-mode
  • Custom configuration available
  • Environmental sealing (IP68)
  • Very high resistance to vibration, shock, environmental effects, dust, and debris
