Two Singlemode Fibers + Two #24 AWG Conductors

The LINDEN-SPE-7107-5 Hybrid (-049) is a compact buoyant hybrid cable designed for underwater, marine, ROV, sensor, and floating system applications where both fiber optic communication and electrical power/control conductors are required in a single cable. This cable combines two singlemode optical fibers with two #24 AWG electrical conductors, allowing reliable signal transmission and low-voltage electrical connectivity while maintaining buoyancy in water.

Built with Linden Photonics’ rugged hybrid cable construction, the SPE-7107-5 is suitable for demanding aquatic environments where lightweight handling, flexibility, and stable performance are important.

Key Features

• Hybrid cable design with optical fiber and copper conductors in one cable
• Two singlemode fibers for long-distance, high-bandwidth data transmission
• Two #24 AWG conductors for power, control, or low-voltage signal use
• Buoyant construction for underwater and floating applications
• Compact and lightweight compared with separate fiber and electrical cables
• Rugged outer jacket for marine and field deployment
• Designed for ROV, AUV, sensor, tether, and subsea equipment applications
• Helps reduce cable clutter by combining data and electrical paths

Product Overview

The LINDEN-SPE-7107-5 Hybrid (-049) Buoyant Hybrid Cable is engineered for systems that require both optical communication and electrical connectivity in water-based environments. The two singlemode fibers provide a reliable pathway for transmitting high-speed data over distance, while the two #24 AWG conductors can be used for low-voltage power, command signals, instrumentation, or control circuits.

Its buoyant design makes it especially useful where the cable must remain neutrally or positively buoyant in water, helping reduce drag, cable sag, and load on connected equipment. This makes it a practical choice for subsea robotics, marine instrumentation, oceanographic systems, and floating sensor platforms.

Typical Applications

• ROV and AUV tether systems
• Marine sensor cables
• Floating fiber optic communication links
• Underwater camera and monitoring systems
• Oceanographic research equipment
• Subsea instrumentation
• Hybrid power and data cable assemblies
• Defense, security, and offshore technology systems
• Aquaculture and environmental monitoring systems

Cable Construction

The SPE-7107-5 hybrid cable includes two singlemode optical fibers for optical data transmission and two #24 AWG copper conductors for electrical connectivity. The cable is built inside a buoyant structure that supports underwater deployment where low weight and floatation are needed.

The construction helps protect the internal fiber and conductor elements from bending stress, handling damage, and environmental exposure during field operation.
