Conax Fiber Optic Feedthrough (FSA)

Conax Technologies has adapted our proven soft sealant capability to include the ability to compress a soft sealant material around the outside diameter of a fiber optic cable. The fiber optic cable is encased within a rugged stainless steel sheath that protects the cable from damage during the sealing process. This sheath is then placed through a seal fitting (also known as a sealing gland). This process allows the fiber optic cable to be sealed without the use of epoxies and with minimal out-gassing.
The fiber optic feedthrough sub-assembly can be used with various Conax Technologies seal fittings, including multiple hole fittings and can be adapted for special applications.

Features:
* Wide range of connector terminations: ST, SMA, FC, FC/APC, FC/PC and SC/APC
* Standard fiber core sizes: 8.3, 62.5, 100, 200, 400, 600, 700 micron & larger
* Adaptable to customer-supplied fiber
* Can seal outside jacket diameters from 400 to 1040 microns
* Protection Tubing: Standard furcation tube (black in color) is constructed of a polypropylene inner tube with a dried Kevlar¬ Aramid yarn strength member and a 3.0 mm outer polyethylene jacket.
* Models FSA2 and FSA4 are available with a low-outgassing furcation tube. Please specify FSA2B or FSA4B for this feature.

Benefits:
* Rugged construction
* Fiber optic cable is protected inside the sheath
* Uses low outgassing materials
