Hybrid Vacuum Feedthroughs: Integrated Optical & Electrical Solutions
Streamline Your Vacuum Chamber Interfaces
Our Hybrid Vacuum Feedthroughs are the ideal solution for complex systems requiring both optical fiber and electrical signal transmission through a single port. By consolidating multiple feedthroughs into a single flange, you save valuable chamber space while reducing the risk of potential leak points.
Whether you are working in Ultra-High Vacuum (UHV) or high-pressure environments, these hybrid assemblies provide a robust, hermetically sealed interface for seamless data and power delivery.
Versatile Configuration Options
We offer complete flexibility in design, allowing you to mix and match optical and electrical channels to suit your specific project needs:
1. Optical Integration
-
Fiber Types: Compatible with Single-Mode (SM), Multi-Mode (MM), Polarization-Maintaining (PM), and Plastic Optical Fiber (POF).
-
Interface Styles: Available with pigtail (fiber leads) or adapter (plug-and-play) interfaces.
2. Electrical Integration
-
Connector Types: Choose from SUB-D, Micro-D, SMA, or BNC interfaces.
-
Versatility: Designed for reliable transmission of both low-level electronic signals and high-current power.
Key Technical Advantages
