Why ArmourLux500 with LC-Max connectors?
A Strong, Durable, Reliable Connection
The LC-MAX IP68 connector is an enhancement of the industry standard LC connector. Its cable retention is at least 6x greater than that of a standard LC connector.
It has been ruggedised by the inclusion of a metal body, latch and IP68 rated cover, offering protection when not in use or being retrieved. The streamline design also ensures you have a snag free retrieval.
100% compatible with standard LC Sockets
The LC-MAX is fully compatible with standard LC sockets and equipment; there’s no need for intermediary connection parts. That means you can connect the fibre directly into your equipment and you’re ready to go.
IP68 rated for peace of mind
The metal cap keeps out water and dust when not in use, to protect the fibre connectors and has been tested to IP68 standard.  You can read more about IP ratings here.
Greater reliability in harsh environments
The ArmourLux500 range uses a tough, durable Miltac cable that tightly packs bend insensitive fibres in aramid yarn, ensuring minimal signal loss even if accidentally kinked.
