opticalCON DUO LITE
2 channel fiber system, improved bending performance due to new fiber design, black matt outer jacket, available in multi- and single-mode (PC or APC). Designed for temporary and permanent installations.
Besides extreme applications there is also a demand for quality fiber connections for applications as e.g. patching, the interconnection of devices, or permanent installations. Such applications require a focus on costs and a sealing shutter is not required. The opticalCON DUO LITE offers high performance and a cost effective, compact, and light weight design. It is fully compatible with the standard opticalCON DUO chassis connector.
- Ruggedized 2 channel fiber optic connection system
- Cost optimized fiber connection for semi and permanent installation
- Waterproof acc. to IP65 safety standard in mated condition
- Lightweight plastic housing
- Reliable Push-Pull locking mechanism
- Easy to clean, no special tools required
- Compatible with standard opticalCON DUO chassis NO2-4FDW-A*
- Tactical patch cable
The opticalCON DUO LITE cable connector accommodates a standard optical 1.25mm ferrule in a durable plastic housing. It features a spring loaded push-pull locking mechanism and an excellent cable retention utilizing aramid yarn. The connector comes pre-assembled and is not available as a single component. The cable is available in different lengths.

Conventional patch cables are sensitive in terms of undercutting the minimum bending radius and lateral pressure. Neutrik’s tactical patch cables feature unique fiber design including a protection buffer which allows bendings with minimal radius and increased lateral pressure. Therefore the tactical patch cables are the right choice for permanent or semi-permanent applications.
