Plastic Optical Fiber Connector IF-C-S2/S3/S4 The IF-C-S2/S3 fiber connector is designed specifically for industry standard 1000 µm core plastic communication fiber optic cable with a jacket of mm O.D. It provides the versatility required to join and rejoin fiber cable segments accurately and reliably, like standard ferruled fiber connections do. This multipurpose connector uses the same attachment as the IFO LED and photodetector products, which means quick and easy assembly without the need for fiber ferrules or polishing. The connector can be used with index-matching gel, for reducing Fresnel reflection losses, or without gel for quick and easy connections. The IF-C-S3 and -S4 models both include a thin electrical nut for attachment in bulkhead and panel mount applications. The IF-C-S4 model has a straight mm core which eliminates requirement that the jacket be stripped, making it a direct replacement for the obsolete IF-C-S1. The IF-C-S2 version is for basic fiber connections or splices and does not include a mounting nut.
