RDC (Rosenberger Duplex Connector)
The RDC (Rosenberger Duplex Connector) with 2 optical fibers is a robust screw locking connector system for use in harsh environments. When mated, the connector and coupler are sealed to EN 60529 IP67.
APC polishing (8Β°) of the ferrules is available for high return loss (testable from 3 meters). Dust caps available in a variety of styles and designs.
Features
- Different connector variants: Male, female, receptacle - in Singlemode PC and APC variants
- Multimode Low IL
- Very good IL and RL performance values thanks to high-precision components
- Robust protective caps for reliable installation on site
- High IP67 ingress protection when inserted or locked
- In the future, this will also be extended to IP68
- High mechanical stability
- 500 mating cycles and adaptation to different cable types and diameters
- Operating temperatures from -40Β°C to +85Β°

Benefits
- When inserted, these fiber contacts form a physical front contact and ensure that the optical fibers are optimally aligned
- The use of high-precision ceramic contacts and centering sleeves for optimum, low-loss signal transmission.
- Robust design which means they keep on working even in extreme weather conditions
- The waterproof construction of the connector and receptacle provides protection against rain, moisture, dust, dirt, snow or ice
Applications
- Cabling for wireless networks or in antenna technology in the telecommunications field
- Infrastructures for industrial automation
- Rail technology
- Energy supply applications, for example for offshore wind plants
- In safety systems
- Broadcasting
