    摘要: A housing of a fiber optic connector such as an MT-RJ connector has a greater surface area and ridges for improved handling and grasping. A door is provided on a fiber optic connector socket to block light leakage from the socket. The door is compact and does not interfere with neighboring devices while closed. The connector has a housing that centers the ferrule and keeps it in a position for precise alignment with the opposing ferrule. A pin retainer is designed to allow insertion and removal of alignment pins in the field without the need for removing the connector from the fiber optic, so that male connectors can be connected to female connectors and vice-versa.

    摘要: A fiber optic connector in such as a male MT-RJ connector has a ferrule fixed to the housing. Ferrule-to-ferrule alignment is provided by the floating ferrule in the mating female MT-RJ connector. A field-installable connector includes a field termination unit with fiber stubs and index matching gel for receiving the cut ends of optical fibers. The fiber stubs extend into the ferrule of the connector. A loopback test unit includes a ferrule and housing like those of a standard connector. A fiber loop has both ends lodged in the fiber bores of the ferrule so that the loop will connect the transmitter of a transceiver to the receiver of the same transceiver when the unit is engaged in the connector of the transceiver. The fiber loop is held within a boot attached to the housing or ferrule so that the entire unit can be conveniently installed and removed, and so that numerous loopback testers can be used simultaneously even when the device under test has numerous closely-spaced transceivers.

    摘要翻译: 诸如MT-RJ连接器的光纤连接器的壳体具有更大的表面积和脊,以改善处理和抓握。 在光纤连接器插座上设有一个门,以阻止插座的漏光。 门是紧凑的,并且在关闭时不会干扰相邻的设备。 连接器具有使套圈居中并将其保持在与相对的套圈精确对准的位置的壳体。 销保持器被设计成允许在现场插入和移除对准销,而不需要从光纤移除连接器,使得阳连接器可以连接到阴连接器,反之亦然。
