Description
Cobalt cables and connectors with MCX 50-ohm coaxial connections.
Cobalt Series, coaxial underwater connectors and cables from Blue Trail Engineering, combine the proven reliability and compact size of the Cobalt connector series with the high-bandwidth performance only possible with coaxial connections. They are also a fraction of the cost of other coaxial subsea connectors.
With 316 stainless steel shells and PEEK inserts, they withstand long-term use in seawater at depths up to 600 meters.
Please note: these coaxial connectors are NOT pressure tolerant when open-face (unmated). To be fully waterproof, they must have either a fully intact mating connector/cable or a dummy plug or dummy cap.
The cable length is 1 meter.
