This standard defines a connector primarily intended for use in television broadcasting and video equipment, such as camera head to camera control-unit connections. It defines hybrid connectors, which contain a combination of electrical contacts and fiber-optic contacts for single-mode fibers. It also contains dimensional tolerances which ensure nondestructive mating of the electrical and optical interfaces, and functional operability of the electrical interface. Functional operability of the optical interface is dependent upon fiber preparation and termination and is, therefore, not guaranteed by this standard.The connector described in this standard is intended for use primarily with the hybrid fiber optic camera cable described in SMPTE 311; however, this connector may be used independently to meet other requirements.
