MIL-DTL-83526 CERTIFIED
Cinch Connectivity Solutions – Mil-Junior
The Cinch Advantage
Our military certified expanded beam connectors have been designed
for use in the most demanding harsh environment applications including
military tactical communications, outside broadcast, petrochemical
plant, mining, and offshore systems.The connectors are terminated
using an epoxy-polish ferrule termination process with standard fiber
optic termination tools and equipment. The terminated ferrules are
simply inserted into the expanded beam housing and fixed in place via
a spring and cover-plate. Ferrule alignment to the lenses is achieved
automatically by the unique optical arrangement developed and patented
by Cinch-Fibreco.
In the event of the connector suffering severe damage in use, the
connector design enables replacement of the expanded beam insert,
connector front body and grip ring without the need to re-terminate the
fibers. Typically, an expanded beam insert can be replaced within 30
minutes in field conditions.
The MIL-DTL-83526 Certified expanded beam connectors offer high
performance, flexibility and cost effectiveness, combined with a simple
termination process allowing rapid in-field termination and repair.
