HMA Series Hybrid Multi Application Connector

Emerson Connectivity Solutions

The HMA connector series, a small hybrid connector suited for a vast array of applications.

The innovative designs ensure its ability for deployment in the toughest environments where high performance and total reliability are critical.

Benefiting from Stratos expanded beam technology, with a long and proven industry track record, the precision optical alignment system creates immunity from water, mud, dust oil and other contaminants.

The HMA Hermaphroditic coupling eliminates the need for adaptors and male and female mating halves.

Hermaphroditic housings allow for rapid deployment, creating low loss Singlemode, Multimode and Hybrid daisy chained links in a variety of planforms ranging from simplex fibre to a copper Hybrid.

The HMA is ideally suitedfor environmental extremities where low maintenance and quick repairabilty is necessary, the connectors are uniquely field installable and rapidly field repairable.HMA Series Connector
