The Datamate EBO-TEK optical system is extremely high endurance and requires zero contact pressure to mate the optical contacts. The rear removable optical inserts are non–rotating and designed to ensure minimum insertion losses and optical stability. More, the contacts are compact, self-aligning and facilitate simple mating; They also feature a unique design that greatly reduces sensitivity to particulate contamination, vibration and temperature changes. Users will appreciate that minimal cleaning is required without impacting performance, and – unlike other fibre optic systems – the Datamate EBO-Tek system does not require thorough inspection before mating – traditionally a barrier to optical systems being used in this type of application.
Comments Paul Gillan, Product Manager: “After careful evaluation, we have chosen what we believe to be a superior fibre optic contact technology which matches the requirements of our Datamate customers, who use our 2mm pitch cable to cable, cable to board and board to board connector family because of its high-reliability under extremes of temperature, shock and vibration. As well as being a high-performance contact, the Datamate EBO-Tek optical fibre system is miniature and easy to use.”
