Fiber Optic Rotary Adapters (RFCX Series)

RFCX series Fiber Optic Rotary Adapters (FORAs) are uniquely designed to have the identical cross sections and mounting features as their standard bulkhead adapter counterparts, sometimes also called mating sleeves.

Pop-in Replacement for FC Bulkheads!

FORAs allow the fiber to rotate freely while maintaining uninterrupted transmission of the optical signal.
Princetel's FORAs can be a pop-in replacement for FC bulkheads.
The RFCX model features low insertion loss and small loss variation during rotation (wow). Return loss can reach as high as >40 dB depending on the conditions of the mating connectors. Well conditioned connectors can also result in typical losses of around 1 dB.
Rugged, sealed for dust and moisture, and can operate under temperature extremes.
