Optical adaptor allows for fibre-optic upgrades

Radiall has launched the size five EN4531 optical adapter for existing MIL-C-81659B/DSX series (ARINC 404 standard) connectors, ideal for use in rack and panel interconnect applications.

It is available in both male and female versions for either plug or receptacle DSX connectors.

Radiall said it is suitable for standard EN4531 multimode optical contacts (termini).

With this adapter, the company said the optical performance exceeds the requirements of the EN4531 standard.

The two-piece adapter can easily be removed using a standard extraction tool for size five co-axial contacts.

The size five EN4531 optical adapter is described as a key accessory to allow for fibre-optic technology upgrade in existing rack and panel interconnect applications.
