Expanded beam performance connectors.

The innovative Expanded Beam Performance (EBP) technology, which is already available in the robust AMC Series T connectors from ODU, is now also available for their MINI-SNAP Series K, MEDI-SNAP, ODU-MAC Silver-Line and ODU-MAC White-Line product lines.

As a non-contact lens technology, Expanded Beam Performance products offer a game-changing interface for fibre optic systems. EBP technology achieves numerous advantages, including low attenuation, virtually no cleaning or maintenance requirements and a long service life. These advantages make EBP the ideal solution for applications where maximum reliability and performance are required.

Future-proof EBP technology impresses with optimum performance.
- Low attenuation levels: For maximum signal quality and low latency, EBP solutions achieve attenuation levels that are even lower than the outstanding values of conventional physical contact (PC) solutions.
- No cleaning or maintenance required: Cleaning the ferrule is only necessary in the case of extreme soiling. Under normal conditions no maintenance is required, and the maximum service life can be achieved without a single cleaning process.
- Long service life: The contactless transmission means there is no wear on the contact elements, so that at least 50,000 mating cycles can be achieved.

AMC Series T Expanded Beam Performance.
The previously available combination consists of EBP technology and a robust circular connector for harsh environments. With its innovative 3-in-1 locking system, non-reflective surface and high resistance to external influences, the AMC Series T has already proven its worth as an EBP solution.

MINI-SNAP Series K Expanded Beam Performance.
The classic circular metal connector is characterized by its safety and flexibility. This is available with the proven push-pull locking system and protects the fiber optic transmission with an IP68 protection class. This is the smallest 12-lens plug solution on the market.

MEDI-SNAP Expanded Beam Performance.
Made of high-quality plastic, the Medi-Snap is up to 75% lighter than comparable products. Its features make it ideal for mobile applications, especially in the medical sector.

ODU-MAC Silver-Line & White-Line EBP module.
The integration in a modular connector enables the hybrid use of EBP technology with other media such as electrical signals or air and fluids. The robust interfaces enable automatic or manual docking with a high number of mating cycles.
