#7 Industrial Connector Check - made easy | Optical and Mini optical contacts

  

OSI Insights in our video-blog

To make the unique advantages of fibre optic technology accessible even in demanding environments, extensive expertise is required. Whether in industry or aviation and aerospace, hybrid connectors for test benches or backplane applications – the need for extremely high data throughput, complete resistance to electromagnetic interference, and exceptional robustness is universal. Reliable, high-performance, and future-proof connections are also essential in medical engineering and even under the harshest conditions.

In our Industrial Connector Check – made easy series, Max Komarow, Product Manager for the industrial sector at Rosenberger OSI, introduces you to the various connectors designed for harsh environments.

In Focus: Optical contacts and mini optical contacts

  

The mini optical contact and optical contact is a flexible, precision solution for plug connectors. These contacts are perfect for integration in fibre optic inserts,
connector strips and D-Sub housings. With this wide range of optical contacts for various carrier systems, you can create almost any contact layout of your choosing. 

Fields of applications

  • Industrial automation
  • Aviation and aerospace
  • Medical engineering
  • Hybrid connectors for test benches
  • Backplane applications
  • Broadcasting
  • and many other areas

Particular feature

These contacts provide everything you need for reliable, fast connections. Whether for singlemode or multimode transmissions. One particular feature of this contact is its very compact size. It can be combined with electrical contacts for hybrid plug connections.

Assembly

The optical and mini optical contacts are extremely simple to assemble. The contact engages quickly and securely. A tool is used to release the contact, guaranteeing precise disassembly. This user-friendly handling saves time and ensures efficient installation.

Features

  • Connection to cable diameters of 0.9 mm - 2.9 mm in the case of the optical contacts and 0.9 mm to 1.8 mm for the mini optical contacts
  • Up to 500 mating cycles
  • Operating temperature from -40°C to +85°C, depending on the cable material
  • Singlemode or multimode

High packing density

Both the small and large variants are characterised by a combination of high packing density, flexibility and ease of use. The mini variant was specially developed for applications that are subject to space constraints. Thanks to its compact design, the small variant is ideally suited for miniaturised devices or systems that demand a high packing density. The large variant is ideal for larger housings. It is more robust and suitable for applications in which mechanical stability and additional connectivity are required.

The optical and mini optical contacts offer you a versatile, high-precision solution. Perfect for demanding applications.
