ROBUST AND RELIABLE INTERCONNECT
SOLUTIONS FOR HARSH ENVIRONMENTS
Diamond offers a wide range of strong, reliable, and customizable indoor / outdoor field fiber optic opticalconnectors with superior optical performances for both standard and custom products. Our connectors canalso integrate High Power PS and Polarization Maintaining PM technology.
These products are built to withstand adverse temperatures, such as weather, shock, vibration, tensile stress,
external pressure, corrosive surroundings and more. These conditions are much harsher than those typicallyendured by standard commercial connectors and cable assemblies.
