​Engineered Interconnect Solutions for Power, Data & Signal Transmission in Harsh Environments

We specialize in delivering highly reliable connector and penetrator solutions designed for the world’s most demanding subsea and industrial environments. Whether you're powering underwater systems, transmitting mission-critical data, or enabling real-time communication in the harshest conditions, our precision-engineered components provide the connectivity and integrity you can trust.

Our suite of products includes marine connectors, penetrators, feedthrough systems​, and subsea high power solutions—developed with deep industry knowledge and an unwavering commitment to quality and durability.​


What Are Connectors and Penetrators?

Connectors and penetrators are essential components used to transmit electrical power, data, or optical signals through pressure boundaries—such as the hulls of submersibles, underwater housings, or offshore equipment. These components ensure watertight seals and uninterrupted signal or power flow in environments where system failure is not an option.

Teledyne Marine’s product portfolio includes:

  • Wet mate connectors
  • Dry mate connectors
  • Seismic connectors
  • Optical hybrid connectors
  • Electrical feedthroughs
  • Subsea high power systems

Each solution is custom-designed to support critical infrastructure in marine, offshore, defense, and industrial applications.

How Our Connectors and Penetrators Work

In underwater and high-pressure environments, maintaining the integrity of power and data transmission systems is vital. Teledyne’s connectors and penetrators serve as the link between external cables and internal components, providing a secure, sealed interface that prevents fluid ingress and electrical shorts.

Penetrators are installed through pressure vessels or enclosures, allowing internal systems to connect to external power or data sources without compromising internal conditions.

Connectors are used to join or disconnect cables in subsea systems and come in both wet mate (can be connected underwater) and dry mate (connected topside before deployment) configurations.

Our optical, electrical, and hybrid solutions ensure seamless performance, even in the most extreme environments.
