 Protokraft Lightning series fiber optic transceivers integrate fiber optic transmitter and receiver functions into a Mil-Dtl-38999 Series III receptacle connector.
The electrical interface to the Lightning series bulkhead optical transceivers is a 0.050” x 0.100” solder pin field enabling connection to a printed circuit assembly. The Mil-Dtl-38999, Series III aluminum shell provides a sealed optical interface that is water-tight to Mil-Std-810 / IP67 / NEMA-4x when mated. The multimode optical fiber interface supports applications where copper cable link distance, bandwidth limitations, weight or bulk make twisted pair, coax, twinax or quadrax copper conductors unacceptable. Lightning series bulkhead mounted optical transceivers enable high speed network communications over long distances in harsh environments. 
FEATURESOptical fiber link distances up to 2.0 Kilometers Applications for RS-485, Fast / Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel and sFPDP from DC to 3.125Gbps RX Signal Detect (SD) or Loss of Signal (LOS) functions indicate loss of received optical signal Operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C Shock, vibration and immersion resistant per Mil-Std-810 Aluminum alloy Mil-Dtl-38999 housings are strong, durable, corrosion resistant and light weight Olive drab cadmium or nickel plating meets stringent corrosion performance requirements Mil-T-29504 compliant optical fiber interface Connector insert configurations conform to Mil-Std-1560
Lightning series optical fiber transceivers are vibration isolated, environmentally hardened components designed for use in harsh environment applications. Protokraft Lightning Series Mil-Dtl-38999 optoelectronic components duplicate the functions of typical datacom or telecom fiber optic transceivers in package configurations that are optimized for the harsh environments of military fiber optic applications. |
