details:
Maxi expanded beam fiber optic connectors have been designed for use in the most demanding harsh environment applications including military tactical communications, outside broadcast, petrochemical plant, mining, and offshore systems where high fiber counts are critical.
The Maxi connector features a fully sealed hermaphroditic coupling, high multimode and single mode optical performance, and a plug shell diameter of just 40 mm.
The connectors are
terminated using an epoxy-polish ferrule termination process with standard fiber
optic termination tools and equipment. The terminated ferrules are simply
inserted into the expanded beam housing and fixed in place via a spring and
cover-plate. Ferrule alignment to the lenses is achieved automatically by the
unique optical arrangement developed and patented by Cinch-Fibreco.
In the event of the connector suffering severe damage in use, the connector design enables replacement of the expanded beam insert, connector front body and grip ring without the need to re-terminate the fibers.
The Maxi expanded beam
connectors offer high performance, flexibility and cost effectiveness, combined
with a simple termination process allowing rapid in-field termination and
repair.

- 12, or 16 Optical Channels.
- Single mode or Multimode.
- Low insertion loss / high return loss.
- Field terminable / repairable.
- Hermaphroditic design.
- Aluminum or Stainless Steel shell options.
- Fully sealed (IP68).
