The TFOCA I tactical fiber optic connector provides reliable performance in harsh environments where high cycle mating is of concern. Its hermaphroditic or genderless design allows for multiple cable assemblies to be concatenated without regard for connector interface compatibility. Examples TFOCA connector’s proven performance are applications deployable military tactical systems, outdoor fiber optic connectors, emergency restoration systems, video / data transmission and homeland security and surveillance. Fully compatible with legacy product, STRAN Technologies has retooled the TFOCA I with stainless steel alignment sleeves, for improved performance, repeated handling and mating cycles typically required for fiber optic cable deployment and retrieval in a tactical environment.

Unique in its compact footprint, STRAN’s TFOCA I to TFOCA GenXTM Connector Adapter is designed to assist in the transition of the legacy TFOCA I tactical interconnect system to STRAN’s next generation TFOCA GenXTM fiber optic connector. One major advantage of this connector adapter is that it minimizes disruption and/or overhauling of existing fiber optic communication systems currently deployed throughout the world.
