Fiber Systems
The TFOCA-II® EX was specifically designed
for fiber optics using field-proven TFOCA-II®
technology. The standard TFOCA-II® EX supports
up to four single mode or multi-mode fiber optic
contacts. Using precision ceramics, the TFOCA-II®
EX provides excellent optical performance with
insertion losses of 0.3 dB typical and 0.75 dB
maximum. The connector is also easy to terminate
with standard fiber optic tools and training.
Features & Benefits

Amphenol Fiber Systems International (AFSI) offers
the TFOCA-II® EX connector to provide fiber
optic connectivity in Zone 1 and Zone 21 hazardous
environments. AFSI was awarded an ATEX
certification number (09ATEX1033X) from Sira for
its fiber optic 4-channel TFOCA-II® hermaphroditic
plug and receptacle connectors. This certification
allows TFOCA-II® EX connectors to mount
directly to flameproof enclosures in hazardous
environments, providing a safe, robust and user-
friendly fiber optic interface.
