Q-ODC 12 - The outdoor fiber connector for extreme environments

The Q-ODC®-12 connectors have achieved outstanding results in a series of rigorous industry tests to ensure their durability and performance under extreme outdoor conditions, proving them to be extremely water-proof, dust-proof and corrosion-resistant. In particular the connectors survived 30 days'' submersion in over three meters of water and passed extended IP68 waterproof testing. They have been subjected to stringent vibration testing without suffering any performance loss.

The HUBER+SUHNER''s Q-ODC®-12 fiber optic connectors also achieved excellent performance in the IP6X dust ingress testing and in extended IPX8 tests for water immersion.

The industry tests and the results achieved demonstrate beyond doubt that the connectors can be used successfully in a wide variety of outdoor environments and industries including FTTA (Fiber to the Antenna), railway, shipbuilding, defence, wind and power energy, industrial automation, offshore and mining. As HUBER+SUHNER is a major supplier to these industries, the new connectors will significantly enhance the company''s portfolio of solutions for these markets.
