CTOS CTOS: Small Optical Field Connector CTOL: Large Optical Field Connector
Amphenol unique CTOS and CTOL design have already gained worldwide acceptance in the ground military using. CTOS has been qualified by NATO according to STANAG 4290 requirements. These products are also widely used in geophysical, civil safety, railway, broadcast and industrial markets. In the CTOS, 1, 2 or 4 channels are inserted in a small size design (o.d. 38mm). CTOL is a CTOS larger version up to 8 channels (o.d. 52mm). CTOL is intermateable with CTO, the first expanded beam connectors version. CTOS and CTOL series are robust optical connectors for rapid deployment of high-speed transmission links under harsh environments. The hermaphroditic mating makes it possible to “daisy chain” cable assemblies without using any interconnect adapters. The specific lens design guarantees a large beam diameter and a low loss connection, less sensitive to dirt and dust. A specific front design and ergonomic keys ensure blind mating. The flat protective window mounted On shock absorbers provides an easy to clean surface for improved performances and protection. CTOS and CTOL harnesses are easily and cost effective field maintainable with the FTOS splice kit.

Derivated product from CTOS CNOS : navy optical field connector
CNOS is the Pier Side version of CTOS connector. The design provides flexibility for current and future Navy communication requirements both afloat and ashore. These connectors are designed for installation into Pier Side. The hermaphroditic mating makes it possible to “daisy chain" cable assemblies without using any interconnect adaptors. The specific lens design guarantees a large beam diameter and a low loss connection, less sensitive to dirt and dust. A specific front design and ergonomic keys ensure blind mating. The flat protective window mounted on shock absorbers provides an easy to clean surface for improved performances and protection. CNOS harnesses are easily to deploy with drum dedicated for afloat and ashore applications.
CROS : railway optical car jumper
CROS is the Railway version of CTOS connector. The design provides flexibility for current and future Railway communication requirements for cars jumpers. The hermaphroditic mating makes it possible to “daisy chain" cable assemblies without using any interconnect adapters. The specific lens design guarantees a large beam diameter and a low loss connection, less sensitive to dirt and dust. A specific front design and ergonomic keys ensure blind mating. The flat protective window mounted on shock absorbers provides an easy to clean surface for improved performances and protection.
