MU Simplex or Duplex Patchcords
 The
MU Connector was developed to help realize compact and densely packaged
systems at low cost. The connector system inherits the superior performance
and high reliability of the SC connector and also realizes small form
factor. Applications include advanced optical transmission, exchange,
and subscriber systems and high speed data application.
Features :
- Compliant
with ANSI, Bellcore, TIA/EIA, IEC Standards
- Low
Insertion Loss and High Return Loss
- Compact
pull-proof Design
- 1.25mm
high precision Japanese-made Ceramic Ferrules
- Simplex
or Duplex Configuration
- Singlemode
(9/125um) or Multimode (50/125um, 62.5/125um)
- RJ
45 style interface
Quality
Assurance:
| Insertion
loss and Return loss |
Insertion loss
is the lost associated with a mated connector pair. Return loss is
defined as the ratio of light reflected at the mated connector pair
over the incident light. Both the Insertion loss and Return loss are
given in logarithmic scale. All patchcords are 100% tested for insertion
loss and return loss. |
| Geometric
Requirements |
An advanced
non-contact interferometric technique (DORC) is employed to measure
the geometric parameters of the polished enface. The key parameters
include radius of curvature, fiber height, apex offset, fiber and
ferrule roughness. Geometric requirements are important to maintain
the physical contact between mated connectors. |
