Camplex opticalCON Duo to opticalCON Duo Fiber Optic Cable

Tactical cables are built with a ruggedized jacket and internal construction designed to withstand the physical abuse of live production environments, such as being stepped on, rolled over by equipment, or dragged across rough surfaces. Standard fiber cables are typically fragile and meant for static, protected installations.

Yes, the single-mode configuration and 6 Gbps data transfer rate are well-suited for high-bandwidth applications, including 4K video signals, provided your transmission equipment is compatible with opticalCON Duo interfaces.

The opticalCON Duo connector is designed to be compatible with standard LC connectors when the protective housing is removed or adapted, but it is primarily intended for use with opticalCON-equipped chassis and devices to maintain its rugged, dust-proof seal.

Like all fiber optic connections, the connector faces should be kept clean and free of debris to ensure signal integrity. We recommend using a standard fiber optic click-cleaner before each deployment to prevent dust from interfering with the connection.

While the cable is durable enough for temporary outdoor setups like live events, it is not specifically rated for long-term, permanent outdoor burial or exposure to extreme weather elements. For permanent installations, you should use conduit or cable specifically rated for outdoor environmental protection.
