Megladon Manufacturing HLC® SCRATCHGUARD® IP Cable Assemblies

Megladon Manufacturing HLC® SCRATCHGUARD® IP Cable Assemblies meet IP68 environmental seal ratings and are ideal for industrial, Fiber-to-the-Antenna (FTTA), and harsh environment fiber applications. The IP connectors are available in LC duplex, Simplex SCAPC, and MPO configurations to support various equipment types. Flange mount adapters are also available for integrating into junction boxes in outdoor installations. The bayonet locking system interface is IEC60603-7 complaint, ensuring compatibility with similar lock systems, including ODVA type connectors. The internal connectors are industry standard and provide exceptional performance, and are fully intermatable.
