Shanghai Kabel Intelligence Technology Co., Ltd photoelectric (optical fiber + power) underwater connector series. Simultaneous fiber optic data and power in one IP68, 7000m rated wet-mateable connector.
Shanghai Kabel Intelligence Technology Co., Ltd Photoelectric Series combines optical fiber data channels and electrical power contacts in a single wet-mateable underwater connector -- eliminating the need for two separate penetrations when a system requires both high-bandwidth data and power at the same connection point. Rated to 7,000 m depth and IP68 sealed, the series is used across ROV camera systems, subsea communications hubs, acoustic modems, and fiber-optic sensor networks.
Available configurations combine 1, 2, or 4 fiber channels with 2 or 4 power contacts. Fiber types: single-mode (SM) or multimode (MM) 50/125 or 62.5/125 micron. Power contacts rated to 600 V AC/DC.

| PH-1F2P | 1 | 2 | 3 | Single-channel video + power |
| PH-2F2P | 2 | 2 | 4 | Duplex comms + power |
| PH-4F2P | 4 | 2 | 6 | 4-channel sensor array + power |
| PH-2F4P | 2 | 4 | 6 | Duplex comms + dual voltage rails |
| PH-4F4P | 4 | 4 | 8 | High-density fiber + power |

Shanghai Kabel photoelectric connectors achieve less than 0.5 dB typical insertion loss per mating under controlled conditions. In field wet-mating, allow up to 1.0 dB -- verify with an optical power meter after mating if your system has a tight link budget.
Yes. Multimode 50/125 um fiber channels support 1000BASE-SX (Gigabit Ethernet) over typical ROV tether lengths. Single-mode channels support 1000BASE-LX over long distances. Specify SM or MM when ordering based on your transceiver type.
The connector mates as one unit -- both fiber and power contacts engage simultaneously on full insertion and coupling ring engagement. Partial engagement is not recommended as it may leave power contacts exposed or fiber ferrules misaligned.
