Product Details

TFOCA-II® and Pierside cable assemblies are built for signal transmission over multiple optical fiber elements in hostile and portable applications. Each connector contains two, four or 12 elements in an extra-rugged, hermaphroditic connector shell. The hermaphroditic design enables cables to be mated to either TAC- 2/4/12 panel connectors or other TAC-2/4/12 cables in any direction providing flexibility for cable link expansion and eliminating cables from being directionally misdeployed. Machine polished, these cables have exceptionally low return-loss and attenuation with consistent end-face geometry. TFOCA-II and Pierside cables are available in almost any length and are custom terminated to user specifications.
