requirements of MIL PRF 83526/20 /21 Military Specifications. Expanded Beam fiber optic connectors are designed to operate in harsh environments they use non physical contact fiber optic termini that are fully sealed behind an anti reflective coated ball lens. This lens
Expanded beam fiber optic connectors have been designed specifically to operate in harsh environments. They employ a non contact technique where the fiber is fully sealed behind a lens. The lens effectively enlarges the active area of the fiber thus providing a connector with greatly reduced dirt sensitivity and therefore higher reliability
This interim technical report describes the first of two phases of development of a two channel expanded beam fiber optic connector. The connector has been designed with two Selfoc micro lenses per connector half providing the expanded beam nature. The preliminary development models resulting from this phase are explained in detail. The final models phase
connector interfaces are required. Smiths Connectors offers custom options in order to meet application specifi c requirements. The fl exible design of HyperGrip connectors allows for the use of alternate technologies including Fiber Optic expanded beam or butt joint termini Coaxial and Spring Probe contacts.
