Speedy route to custom fibre-optic products
A novel online product builder allows visitors to the Timbercon website to build, specify, request information, or request a quotation for custom fibre-optic products, saving valuable time and effort.
"Rather than installing separate fibre and copper cables, the hybrid cable provides an easy and effective way to install both with only one point of entry".
Timbercon's MIL hybrid cables are suitable for military applications requiring low-voltage copper cable and fibre cable to be used within the same space or for equipment requiring different cable types.
The copper wire can carry power while the fibre can transmit data without the risk of electromagnetic interference, or EMI.
Additionally, hybrid cables cut down on cable weight and physical space requirements by using a single jacket, enabling a faster and more cost effective install versus traditional cabling systems.
Timbercon's MIL hybrid cables are highly customisable with regards to length, channel counts and ruggedisation.
They are offered in D38999, M28876 as well as a variety of other ruggedised/harsh environment connector designs depending on individual application.
