DESCRIPTION
The QFOCA-Enhanced tactical fiber optic connector is
the second generation of the TFOCA* connector and is
based on the MIL-C-83526/16 specification. QPC’s
connector design enhances the optical, mechanical,
environmental and functional performance to meet
today’s demanding system requirements.
New features include an optical interface with four
standard 2.5mm ferrules. The front insert can be easily
