MAS (Multipurpose Adapter System) Applications Test and measurement equipment Modular high optical power systems

cleanliness is the key word using connector for high power applications. Therefore installing a MAS in a rack system instead of an usual mating adapter, can avoid uncomfortable panel disassembling for access to the internal connector
