The OPTOKON FCON field fiber optic connectors are designed for military field cables. The neutral bayonet locking structure enables quick and arbitrary connection of the head and the seat, the head and the head, and the seat and the seat. It has multi-core one-time connection and can be blindly inserted; it has small connection loss and high reliability; it is strong, waterproof, dustproof and resistant to harsh environment. It can be used in various field military optical fiber communication networks. Military computer system, Airborne or shipborne equipment, repairing systems, etc. The field light road is temporarily connected.

The OPTOKON HMA optical modules are designed for connection of the nodes of tactical network by the help of cables with optical fibers. The used „Expanded beam technology“ preserves all advantages of signals transmission through the optical lines in field harsh environmental conditions. 
  Benefiting from expanded beam technology, with a long and proven industry track record, the precision optical alignment system creates immunity from water, mud, dust, oil and other contaminants.
The HMA Hermaphroditic coupling eliminates the need for adaptors and male and female mating halves. Hermaphroditic housings allow for rapid deployment, creating low loss Single mode, Multimode and Hybrid daisy chained links in a variety of planforms ranging from simplex fiber to a copper Hybrid. The OPTOKON HMA is ideally suited for environmental extremities where low maintenance and quick repairabilty is necessary, the connectors are uniquely field installable and rapidly field repairable.
There are two different types of OPTOKON HMA connection modules:
a)    LD type military tactical cable with OPTOKON HMA plugs at both sides
b)    Hybrid connection module OPTOKON HMA to standard fiber optic connectors (FC, SC, ST, LC, …) 

The OPTOKON D38999 Series III derived Expanded Beam fiber optic connectors have been designed for use in the most demanding civil and military electronic equipment interface applications. The connector features the generic MIL-DTL-38999 Series III tri-start thread and one-turn self locking anti-vibration coupling mechanism making it ideal for use in vehicle, aircraft and naval environments. Plug and receptacle connectors are available with straight or 90º back-shell options and a choice of shell materials including Aluminum alloy (Zinc Cobalt, Olive drab), Aluminum alloy (electroless Nickel plated), Nickel Aluminum Bronze (shot blast, non-reflective) and Stainless Steel (passivated). Receptacle connectors are available with jam-nut or square-flange mounting and strain relief for zip-cords or tactical cable.

The connectors are terminated using an epoxy-polish ferrule termination process with standard fiber optic termination tools and equipment. The terminated ferrules are simply inserted into the Expanded Beam housing and fixed in place via a spring and cover-plate.  Ferrule alignment to the lenses is achieved automatically by the unique optical arrangement.

The OPTOKON D38999 Series III Expanded Beam connectors offer high performance, flexibility and cost effectiveness.

The OPTOKON introducing new effective low cost harsh environment connectors HE-XX series which are designed for Industrial networks, FTTH (Fiber to the Home), FTTA (Fiber to the Antenna), or any other harsh environmental projects. Pre connectorized cables significantly reduce cable installation time, saving money and accelerating FTTX subscriber connections.

The OPTOKON Shielded Fiber Optic Patchcord enables easy handling and installation in a similar way to standard electrical cable. This most recent version of the Shielded Fiber Optic Patchcord offers increased protection against the possibility of light leakage in order to eavesdrop on the signal while reducing the bending radius below the recommended limit. This unique design ensures an easier construction process therefore reducing the return loss and extending the life span of the optical fiber.
