摘要:
In a connector system, a first connector is mechanically and optically mateable with a second connector to form one or more optical signal communication links. A wiping cleaner is included on at least one of the first and second connectors for cleaning an optical port of the other of the first and second connectors when the connectors are plugged together. The first and second connectors can further be electrically mateable to provide both optical and electrical signal communication links.

A thin hybrid plug, a thin hybrid receptacle that mates with the thin hybrid plug, and a thin hybrid connector assembly comprising the thin hybrid receptacle mated with the thin hybrid plug are provided. A method for configuring a thin hybrid plug so that an optical surface of the plug is disposed for easy cleaning is also provided. An optics system of the hybrid plug has an optical surface that is substantially flush with an end face of a molded plug body of the hybrid plug to allow the optical surface to be easily wiped clean. In addition, the electrical contacts system and the optics system of the hybrid plug are arranged to enable the optical surface of the optics system to be easily wiped with a cleaning device, such as a cotton-tipped swab, for example. An optics system of the hybrid receptacle has an optical surface that is also disposed to be easily wiped with a cleaning device, such as a cotton-tipped swab, for example.
摘要:
An opto-electronic module connector system is mountable on a system substrate, such as a printed circuit board, in a variety of configurations or orientations and includes an electromagnetic interference (EMI)-shielding enclosure, a connector assembly, and a socket. The connector assembly includes a connector body, a connector printed circuit board, a substantially planar contact holder, electrical contact fingers mounted on the contact holder, and an opto-electronic module. When the EMI-shielding enclosure and socket are mounted on the system substrate, a user can readily insert the connector assembly into the EMI-shielding enclosure and plug it into the socket. A user can likewise readily remove the connector assembly from the EMI-shielding enclosure and socket for maintenance, cleaning, repair or other purposes.

In one embodiment, there is provided a computer-implemented method for integrating heterogeneous business processes, the method comprising: reading first process information of a first business process; obtaining from a unified process view second process information of a second business process; and integrating at least one part of the first process information and at least one part of the second process information into a third business process; wherein the first business process and the second business process are heterogeneous business processes. In another embodiment, there is provided a computer-implemented apparatus for integrating heterogeneous business processes.
摘要:
Embodiments of the invention include a fiber connector module and method for coupling optical signals between an optical transceiver module and an optical fiber described herein involve the coupling to or overmolding of a fiber connector module to an optical transceiver module or other optical source, and a fiber lens coupled to for formed into an angled surface of the fiber connector module housing. The angled surface and the fiber lens are configured in such a way that the fiber lens focuses collimated light from the transceiver module to the receiving end of an optical fiber or other optical detector positioned within the fiber connector module housing. Fiber connector modules according to embodiments of the invention allow for relatively low profiles compared to conventional arrangements and configurations, especially with multi-channel, parallel lane configurations.
摘要:
An optical communications module is provided with an optical coupling system that includes a reflective and focusing (RAF) lens and an index-matching material that together allow air gaps along the optical pathway, which are typically associated with the use of refractive optical elements used in known optical communications modules, to be eliminated. Eliminating these air gaps allows Fresnel reflection along the optical pathway to be eliminated, or at least greatly reduced. Eliminating or reducing Fresnel reflection reduces insertion loss and optical crosstalk in the optical communications module.
