The HMA connector
series, a small hybrid connector suited
for a vast array of applications.
The innovative designs
ensure its ability for deployment in the
toughest environments where high
performance and total reliability are
critical.Benefiting from Stratos
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
Singlemode, Multimode and Hybrid daisy
chained links in a variety of planforms
ranging from simplex fibre to a copper
Hybrid. The 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.
