Camplex HF-OC2SLV opticalCON DUO Single Mode with 2 Low Voltage Conductors
Best hybrid fiber solution for professional broadcast and live event setups.
This Camplex HF-OC2SLV hybrid fiber optic cable provides a lightweight, cost-effective alternative to traditional SMPTE cables, ideal for professional audio and data transfer applications where low voltage (under 65V) is sufficient. It features a rugged opticalCON DUO connector with an LC-Duplex fitting, offering IP65 waterproof protection when mated and excellent dust resistance. The cable's ultra-flexible design and small 7.3mm outer diameter simplify handling and storage, making it suitable for longer cable runs on standard reels. It includes two 16 AWG conductors alongside the optical fibers for a secure and reliable connection.

The tactical jacket withstands rigorous use while maintaining flawless signal integrity, which is crucial for mission-critical broadcast and live events. Its core value lies in combining high-bandwidth single mode fiber with power conductors, significantly streamlining complex setups and reducing cable clutter. Users trust the robust Neutrik connector system to protect sensitive fiber ends, ensuring low loss performance for 4K video transport. While the initial cost is high, its longevity and the avoidance of costly downtime confirm its status as a justified, high-performance professional asset.
Know before you buy
This cable is designed as a lightweight, cost-effective alternative for applications requiring low voltage under 65V. It is not a full-power SMPTE replacement, so ensure your equipment does not exceed the 65V limit before use.
When fully mated, the connector offers an IP65 waterproof rating, meaning it is protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets. It also features an automatic sealing shutter to keep the internal LC-Duplex connection clean when the cable is unplugged.
The 7.3mm outer diameter makes this cable significantly more flexible and easier to coil than traditional, thicker SMPTE cables. Despite its smaller profile, it remains rugged enough for professional field use and is well-suited for deployment on standard cable reels.
The opticalCON DUO connector is rated for 5,000 mating cycles. This ensures long-term reliability for professional environments where cables are frequently connected and disconnected.
Yes, the two 16 AWG conductors are integrated to handle low-voltage power requirements alongside the fiber optic data transfer. Always verify that your specific device's power draw is compatible with the cable's voltage and gauge specifications.
