Fiber Optic Connectors & Ferrule


Fiber Optic Connectors

Fiber Optic Connectors

The most usual for users and operators the type of connections is the connector - the connector. Connection reusable and typical. Allows to switch inputs and equipment outputs without special adaptations. In many respects reminds electrical a plug and a fork.

The principle of action is rather simple for understanding that you will not tell about manufacturing techniques. The task of connection to connect two optical fibers closely with a deviation from an axis about a micron thus having restricted effort of the operator not to allow chips in an optical fiber. Tips of connectors are executed from ceramics and have precision accuracy of manufacture. Strictly on center of a ceramic tip passes an optical fiber.

There are some standards of optical connectors: FC/UPS, FC/APC, SC/UPS, SC/APC, LC/UPC, LC/APC, E2000/UPC ,E2000/APC ,MU/UPS, MU/APS. Operation principle at them identical, methods of fixing or fixing type to the slot are various only.

 

Ferrule

Ferrule

Ferrule are considered as the main part of connectors. Ferrule from zirconium have big longevity and reliability among different materials. Ferrule of the quality company also are made under strict quality control. Optical and mechanical properties meet all standards of production.
