Low Profile Series compact subsea connectors for ROV, AUV and subsea instrumentation where space is constrained. IP68 rated. Contact sales@rovcable.com.
The Low Profile Series from Shanghai Kabel Intelligence Technology Co., Ltd is a range of compact, shallow-body subsea connectors engineered for ROV, AUV, and oceanographic instrument applications where installation space is severely constrained. Available in multiple contact configurations -- from pure Ethernet to hybrid power + data -- all units share an IP68 sealing standard and corrosion-resistant housing materials.

The Low Profile Series has a significantly reduced mating face height -- typically 30-50% shallower -- while maintaining the same IP68 rating and contact performance. This makes it ideal for enclosures where a standard circular connector would protrude excessively.
No -- Low Profile connectors require matching Low Profile mating counterparts. They are not cross-compatible with standard circular series. Both male and female sides must be specified from the Low Profile Series.
Yes -- right-angle (90°) panel-mount versions are available for installations where the cable must exit parallel to the panel surface rather than perpendicular.
Low Profile and Micro Low Profile Series connectors (LPBH/LPIL or MCLPBH/MCLPIL) are designed for limited space with 2 to 9 contacts to solve more solution.
