TACBEAM
Amphenol introduces the TACBeam Series into the harsh environment product portfolio. This legacy hermaphroditic fiber optic lens connector, facilitates the inter-connection of multiple identical fiber optic cable assemblies known as daisy chaining, thus eliminating the need for polarising the assemblies and the use of in-line adapters.
TacBeam as per VG95319-100; -101
TacBeam is a hermaphroditic lens connector, insensitive to dust and dirt. This connector is qualified as per MIL-DTL-83526/20 and 21. In addition, it is approved as per VG95319-100; -101, and is thus suitable for outdoor applications. A marine bronze version is also available (according to VG95319-102).
