These fiber optic cable assemblies are said to withstand the harshest of environments. They use Envirotight hermetic connectors, which can be used for multimode or singlemode applications. Environmental testing reportedly performed successfully on the cable assemblies includes thermal cycling (-55° to 85°C) temperature/ humidity (40°C, 95 percent RH) pressure (1,520 torr) immersion in water with indicator dye; immersion in pH 11 fluid; and cable retention (25 lb).
