Size 5 | PL230 Lens Connector Insert
The lens connector insert Size 5 | PL230 ensures a robust, reliable optical fiber connection. Its transmission performances are unaffected even in tough environments and when subjected to mechanical stresses. A sprung insert compensates for even significant tolerances and movements in the carrier system. Optical beam expansion makes the connectors, which are based on expanded beam technology, insensitive to contamination. The connector is coupled by means of a snap-on connecting sleeve.
Features
- Up to 1000 mating cycles
- Robust connector design
- Compensates for significant tolerances and movements in carrier systems thanks to a sprung insert
