The 4-Core Fibre Underwater Connector from the SubConn Compatible Photoelectric Series is a CCP cable connector plug (in-line, cable mount), delivering reliable fibre optic connection in a minimum-sized stainless steel body rated to 8,000 m. Low insertion loss and low back reflection make it ideal for high-speed data and video transmission on ROVs, ROTVs, UUVs and subsea multiplexers. This is a dedicated fibre optic connector; it does not carry electrical power. For combined fibre + power in one interface, use the hybrid 2F+2P, 4F+2P or 12F+2P versions.

Key Design Features
Minimum-size fibre connection: reliable fibre optic termination in the smallest connector body of its class, designed for subsea equipment manufacturers.
Low optical loss: insertion loss ≤ 2 dB with low back reflection — suited to high-speed data and HD video transmission.
Deep-water stainless build: rugged stainless steel shell with NBR O-ring sealing; standard depth rating 8,000 m.
Single-mode or multi-mode: both fibre types can be customized, with 2.5 SC / 1.25 LC ceramic ferrule terminations.
SubConn Compatible Photoelectric family: mixes in the same series lineup as the 2F+2P, 4F+2P and 12F+2P hybrid versions.

Notes for Selection
Standard depth rating 4,000–6,000 m across the series (4-core versions 8,000 m per model listing); water pressure grade 1–40 MPa with certified pressure testing to specific ocean depths available on request. Single-mode or multi-mode fibre, custom fibre/power combinations (1 fibre • 2 fibre • 2 fibre + 2 power • 2 fibre + 5 power • 4 fibre • 4 fibre + 4 power • 12 fibre + 2 power — custom combinations on request) can be specified to order. Fibre terminations should be kept clean and capped with the dust-proof lock cap when unmated.
Custom configurations available
Single-mode or multi-mode fibre, custom fibre/power combinations (1 fibre to 12 fibre, with 2–5 power contacts),
custom cable lengths and breaking strengths, and certified pressure testing to specific ocean depths can be
specified to order. Send us your drawing or mating requirement for a quotation.
