pb^`lk ADVANCED PRODUCTS, LLC PRODUCT DATASHEET PRESSURE BALANCED OIL-FILLED (PBOF) SPLICE-LESS OPTICAL JUMPERS WITH FIBER MANAGEMENT NTS Pressure Balanced Oil-Filled (PBOF) Splice-Less Optical Jumper with Fiber Management DESCRIPTION Subsea jumper assemblies and distribution harnesses are provided by pb^`lk for use with pb^`lk subsea connectors. Many subsea optical cable and connection systems utilize Pressure Balanced Oil Filled (PBOF) cabling solutions. These cables utilize an elastomeric tube as a conduit for fiber optic lines. The elastomeric conduit is filled with a compensating fluid, allowing the sea pressure to freely communicate with the interior oil volume, equalizing the pressure in the assembly. This option for cabling provides for a reliable and configurable cable system suitable for many subsea applications. This technology has been widely utilized in ocean science observatories, towed arrays, drilling systems, production control systems and Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) systems to name a few. They have become a critical component in many subsea systems today and pb^`lk is pleased to offer this solution with its Subsea fiber optic connectors. Splice-less Optical Jumpers offer the advantage of eliminating the need to have an optical fusion splice in the length of jumper hose. KEY FEATURES · Integral optical fiber management system within hose to mitigate excessive movement or forces applied directly to the internal fibers · Good cable flexibility, typical 150mm (5.9") bend radius · Enhanced visibility, typically Orange and Yellow in · color (other colors available) · Deployment techniques similar to jacketed cable · Good ROV maneuverability during connector mating · Easy interface to connector · Early leak detection; some hoses are designed for over-pressure and may be used to offer visible leak paths SAPL-DS-0412 SPLICE-LESS OPTICAL JUMPERS Rev 2 Page 1 of 2 Ease of repair Double Barrier against water ingress Temperature and Pressure Compensated Size 13mm & 20mm ID (Other sizes available upon request) · Multi-mode and single-mode available · Over 20 splice-less optical jumpers supplied · Longest is 208m supplied to date · · · · pb^`lk Advanced Products, LLC. 1321 Nelius Road, PO Box 767, Bellville, Texas 77418, USA TEL: +1 (979) 865 8846 FAX: +1 (979) 865 8859 E-Mail: sales@seacon-ap.com Website: www.seacon-ap.com

pb^`lk ADVANCED PRODUCTS, LLC PRODUCT DATASHEET ADVANTAGES / DISADVANTAGES Splice-less optical jumper systems are not for everybody. ADVANTAGES · The elimination of an optical fusion splice from the central area of the jumper system has the benefit of providing improved optical performance in regard to insertion loss totals. The use of fiber management is still highly recommended DISADVANTAGES Fiber Management · More difficult to manufacture as each connector element cannot be manufactured modular · Splices allow significantly easier factory and field repair/maintenance · More expensive...
