Product Details

Product Overview‌
The ‌HXB13 Connector‌ is a rugged, field-deployable fiber optic connector series utilizing advanced ‌expanded beam technology‌. It is designed for harsh environments and supports hermaphroditic (genderless) interconnections, hybrid optical/electrical configurations, and environmental sealing (IPX8).

Core Features & Technology‌
Expanded Beam Technology‌: Uses expanded and collimated beams to couple optical fibers ‌without physical contact‌. This design increases tolerance to damage, dust, contamination, and vibration.
Hermaphroditic Design‌: Enables direct connector-to-connector mating without adapters, allowing for fast daisy-chaining of cable segments.
Rugged Construction‌: Built for harsh conditions with high resistance to shock, vibration, dust, debris, and water immersion.
Hybrid Capability‌: Configurations are available to transfer both ‌optical signals and electrical power/signals‌ within the same connector.
Easy Maintenance‌: Designed for easy cleaning in the field with no special tools required.

Applications‌
Harsh & Demanding Environments‌: Military tactical communications, avionics, marine, offshore systems, mining, oil & gas, rail, and industrial plants.
General Communications‌: Telecommunications, outside broadcast, medical, and data centers.
