Contamination in this area can result in poor or useless signals. In response Harting has developed the PushPull SFP XS connector. They can be easily and quickly connected to a transceiver pre-assembled on site without having to open the optical link. The optical contacts are protected, even in dirty operating environments, to guarantee a clean signal.
The PushPull SFP XS connector also comes with a sophisticated locking mechanism and, despite the compact design, the connector is compatible with various transceiver lengths.
It also gives clear tactile and acoustic feedback to the user to indicate a secure connection. As a result, it provides a safe and trouble-free transmission solution for fibre-optic communication in harsh environments.
The PushPull SFP XS is intended for use in industrial fibre-optic systems involving data transmission rates of more than 10 Gbit/s or distances of well over 100 metres. Typical applications include telecommunications or camera-based surveillance over large areas in the process industry.
