Optical Connector and Devices

Optical Connector and devices

An optical fiber connector enables quicker connection and disconnection by terminating the end of an optical fiber and these types of connectors can pass light easily for that they are mechanically coupled. Many types of optical fiber connectors are available. Dimensions and methods of mechanical coupling make main difference.

Optical connectors are similar to their electrical counterparts in function. They must, however, be high precision devices. Connectors must center the fiber so that its light gathering core lies directly over and in line with a light source or another fiber to a tolerance of a few ten thousandths of an inch.

There are many different types of optical connectors in use today.

Features:

Backplane. Self-holding mechanism which does not transfer any force on the back panel. Back panel sides connectors can be removed or inserted even both sides are mated.
Wide variety of adapter type. Board mounting, snap-in panel mounting and screw panel mounting of single, duplex, 8 way etc
Simplified plugs and receptacles.
Smaller package using 4.5mm pitch MU multiple adapters.
Easy to change the attenuation level by exchanging the attenuation part with a simple push-twist lock.
Insertion and extraction tool.
Maximum input power: 100mW.
User friendly push-pull mechanism.
For high input power. (250mW max.)
Wide attenuation variation
Air gap method offers efficient attenuation.
Available in Plug-Jack configurations.
Cost reduction by carving lines on the plug housing instead of printing lines to check connection with adapter.
Ultra small waterproof optical connector
Withstands harsh outside environment.
Any worker can tighten connectors securely at the specified tightening torque.
Portable field assembly kit for an urgent repair outside of factory is available.
Optical and electric composition miniaturizes connector and reduces mounting man-hour
Withstands harsh outside environment.
Adjustment mechanism of optical fiber cable assures low insertion loss for SM fiber
Excellent operational qualities
Divides the optical signal into multiple signals equally.
Multiple way (8-way, 16-way and more).
