The Ikelite Manual Fiber Optic Transmitter (Gen 2) is a compact, independently sealed device designed to replace the flash bulkhead in Ikelite DL and DLM underwater housings.

It enables reliable fiber optic triggering of compatible underwater strobes. When paired with an Ikelite DS160, DS161, DS162, DS230, or DS232 Strobe and the High Sensitivity Optical Converter #4405, it supports high frame rate burst shooting.
