Harsh Environment Connectors Overview

 
The Hermaphroditic Quad connector has been designed specifically to facilitate the interconnection of fibre optic cable assemblies, thus eliminating the need for polarising the assemblies and the use of inline adapters. The HQM series utilises ceramic sprung loaded ferrule technology, giving low repeatable optical attenuation. The shell material is Aluminium Zinc Cobalt Olive Drab for mil comms applications, and Stainless Steel for oil field and mining applications.
