Powered Tether

Powered Tether refers to a type of cable assembly or harness that is used in the field of fiber optics. It falls under the supply class Fiber Optic Cable Assemblies And Harnesses, which is part of the supply group Fiber Optics Materials, Components, Assemblies, And Accessories.

A Powered Tether is designed to provide both power and data transmission capabilities over a fiber optic cable. It typically consists of a fiber optic cable with additional conductors for power transmission. This allows for the simultaneous transmission of high-speed data and electrical power, making it suitable for various applications such as remote sensing, industrial automation, and telecommunications.

Powered Tethers are commonly used in scenarios where it is necessary to provide power to remote devices or equipment located at a distance from the power source. The fiber optic cable provides a reliable and high-bandwidth data connection, while the additional power conductors ensure a stable power supply.

These cable assemblies and harnesses are available in various configurations and lengths to suit different requirements. They are typically manufactured using high-quality fiber optic cables and connectors to ensure optimal performance and durability.

Overall, Powered Tethers are an essential component in fiber optic systems that require both data transmission and power supply capabilities.
