Know before you buy
The Neutrik opticalCON QUAD connector is designed specifically for field use. It features a rugged, all-metal housing with a built-in protective shutter that keeps the fiber endfaces clean and safe from dust or damage when not connected.
Yes. The cable is built with a durable, flame-retardant PUR tactical jacket and is rated for operating temperatures between -40°C and 85°C, making it suitable for harsh outdoor broadcast environments.
The opticalCON QUAD connector is designed to be compatible with standard LC duplex connections internally, but it requires the specific Neutrik opticalCON chassis mount to lock into place. You would need an opticalCON-to-LC breakout adapter if you are connecting to standard rack-mount fiber patch panels.
This assembly contains four OM4 multimode fibers, allowing for multiple signal paths within a single, durable tactical cable.
Yes, the factory-machine polishing ensures the endfaces meet strict GR-326-CORE standards. This results in exceptionally low insertion loss, keeping your signal integrity high over the length of the cable.
