🛡️ Military-Grade Ruggedness

This assembly is engineered to meet the stringent standards of Aviation and Defense connectivity.
Compatible with JONHON (J599 Series) interfaces, it offers superior protection against Shock, Vibration, and Extreme Temperature compared to standard plastic telecom connectors.

📊 Technical Specifications

• FTTA CPRI connectivity for outdoor RRUs: hardened interface reduces field splicing and speeds up tower rollout
• Lower “buy-wrong” risk: clear build options for Interface↔Interface and Interface↔LC fanout deployments
• Verification-ready: OS2 G657A1 default, LC/UPC default, factory IL test report available, target up to IP68 when fully mated

Product Description

JONHON-compatible hardened waterproof CPRI patch cord series for FTTA sites. Supports interface-to-interface jumpers and interface-to-LC duplex/fanout transition assemblies using OS2 G657A1 fiber, designed for outdoor reliability with target up to IP68 when properly mated.

ABPTEL JONHON-compatible waterproof CPRI patch cords are built for FTTA sites where outdoor mating reliability and fast installation matter. The hardened interface uses a sealed coupling structure to protect optical contacts from water, dust and vibration during tower routing. By standardizing the build into two mainstream options—Interface↔Interface for outdoor jumpers and Interface↔LC duplex/fanout for indoor patching—engineers can reduce site rework and procurement risk. Default configuration uses OS2 singlemode G657A1 and LC/UPC terminations, with factory insertion-loss testing and optional labeling/packaging to match field maintenance processes.

Core Technical Bullets

• Series / Interface: JONHON-compatible hardened waterproof fiber interface (FTTA)
• Main assemblies:
  • Interface ↔ Interface (outdoor jumper)
  • Interface ↔ LC duplex / LC fanout (transition to indoor patching)
• Fiber type (default): OS2 singlemode, G657A1
• Endface (default): LC/UPC (LC/APC optional)
• Core count options: 2-core (CPRI common), 4-core, MT multi-core (on request)
• IP target: up to IP68 when fully mated (final rating depends on matching parts and correct installation)
• Jacket options: LSZH / TPU / PE (project-dependent)
• Cable OD options: project-dependent (typ. 5.0 / 7.0 mm class builds available)
• Operating temperature: project-dependent (wide-temp materials available on request)
• Customization: length, breakout length, labeling, protective caps, packaging, barcode/QR, routing plan support
• Testing: insertion loss test report, end-face inspection available, continuity/polarity for MT on request

Structure & Principle

This series uses a hardened sealed coupling design: the mating interface incorporates a sealing system and protective cap to keep optical end-faces clean during outdoor handling. The cable is pre-terminated and factory tested, so field teams can “plug and lock” rather than splice at height.
In typical FTTA builds, the hardened interface is placed on the outdoor segment (tower side), while the indoor side uses LC duplex or LC fanout to patch into DU/BBU or an ODF/FTTA distribution box. This structure simplifies maintenance because the demarcation point (panel socket/adapter) can remain serviceable without disturbing tower routing.

Compatibility

Compatible with FTTA/RRU connectivity workflows and panels used by:

• Ericsson
• Nokia
• Huawei
• ZTE

Note: actual interoperability requires matching connector family, keying and gender. Provide your current mating sample/photo or drawing for final confirmation; ABPTEL can supply a mating sample for verification.

FAQ

1. Is this a JONHON original part?
   This page covers JONHON Original hardened interface assemblies.
2. What are the two most common configurations I should choose from?
   Most projects use Interface↔Interface for outdoor jumpers, and Interface↔LC duplex/fanout for indoor transition.
3. Default fiber and connector polish?
   Default fiber is OS2 G657A1 and default polish is LC/UPC. LC/APC is optional if your standard requires it.
4. Do you support 2-core / 4-core / MT multi-core?
   Yes. 2-core is common for CPRI; 4-core and MT multi-core are available based on your interface and routing plan.
5. What IP rating can you achieve?
   Target up to IP68 when fully mated. Final rating depends on matching parts, correct torque/locking, cap management and installation procedure.
6. Can I use it in power utility or harsh outdoor environments?
   Yes, the hardened interface is designed for outdoor exposure. Specify temperature range, jacket material (TPU/PE/LSZH) and mechanical requirements in RFQ.
7. How do I avoid ordering the wrong mating type?
   Confirm: (a) plug vs socket/adapter, (b) keying, (c) gender, (d) core count, (e) tail type (LC duplex or fanout). A photo of the existing mating port is the fastest way.
8. Do you provide test reports?
   Yes. Insertion loss test report is available. End-face inspection images can be provided for QA lots.
9. What labeling/packaging options are available for field maintenance?
   Cable ID labels, heat-shrink markers, barcode/QR, bag/box labeling and kit packaging can be customized for your site process.
10. What should I send for a fast quotation?
    Use the RFQ checklist below—especially mating type, keying, fiber count, length, jacket, and required documents.
