8 Fibre Optic Cables
In connection with the ARC4 Detector System AFT offers special low-loss fibre optic
cables, that are not included in the ARC4 standard scope of supply.
8.1
Multimode Glass Fibre Cable
The multimode cable is a bundle of several glass fibers, glued together at the ends
and terminated with FSMA standard coupling connectors. Cables are available in
standard length of 2.5m, 5m, 10m, 20m, 30m, 50m and 75m. Customized lengths are
available on request with maximum length of 75m.
