NEX10®-FO
The Rosenberger NEX10®-FO (fibre optic) connector is based on the proven NEX10® RF connector and offers maximum flexibility and robustness in screw and push-pull versions. The universal panel mount receptacle, designed for both push-pull and screw-lock installations, provides a secure, easy and damage-free connection.
The compact NEX10® FO interface is ideal for use in existing and future networks, such as small cells, distributed antenna systems (DAS), in-building architectures, MIMO and other industrial applications in harsh environments. Especially in view of the requirements of the upcoming 5G networks, the new connector system from Rosenberger meets the requirements for a highly efficient network infrastructure for global mobile networks.
