Four connector styles are available for termination of plastic optical fiber: simplex connector, simplex latching, duplex and duplex latching. All connectors provide a snap-in action when mated to Versatile Link components. A Simplex connector is color coded to facilitate identification of transmitter and receiver connections. Duplex connectors are keyed so that proper orientation is ensured during insertion. If the POF cable/connector will be used at extreme operating temperatures or experience frequent and wide temperature cycling effects, the cable/connector attachment can be strengthened with an RTV adhesive (see Plastic Connectoring Instructions for more detail). The connectors are made of a flame retardant VALOX UL94 V-0 material (UL file # E121562).
