The new year also brings with it a novelty with the launch of the VITA 66

What is VITA 66?

This connector has been designed with ruggedness and reliability in mind. Its scalability allows it to accommodate a wide variety of optical connector types and configurations, thus meeting the needs of various industrial applications.

Highlighted Features:

1. High Density: Each connector can support up to 24 optical channels (and up to 48 with 2 MT ferrules).
2. PRIZM® MT Technology Integration: Versions 66.1 and 66.4 of this connector incorporate US Conec’s PRIZM® MT ferrule, which utilizes expanded beam technology.
3. Operation: Each end of the ferrule is equipped with a lens. The first lens expands the signal, which is then recollimated by the second lens.

Key Benefits:

• Increased durability: Since there is no direct contact between the connector parts, the mechanical stress generated by the mating cycles is reduced.
• Facilidad de mantenimiento: Comparado con los conectores de contacto físico, este diseño es menos frágil y más sencillo de limpiar y mantener.
• Less sensitivity to dust: The robustness of the lenses contributes to greater resistance to dust particles.

In summary, VITA 66 stands as a reliable choice for optical connectivity in demanding industrial environments. Senior engineers will find this standard a valuable tool for their projects and technical challenges.
