    • Devices and methods are described that permit simple correction of a fiber optic polarity reversal problem. An adapter is described having receptacles to receive a connector on a first end, or user end, and on a second end, or contractor end. Both the receptacles provide keying arrangements so that the connectors can be received only when correctly oriented with respect to the adapter. The keying arrangement on the contractor end, however, is reversable so that the connector may be inserted in one of two predetermined orientations, at the behest of the contractor or installer. Adapters are also described that receive connectors only in a physically reversed orientation to counteract a reverse polarity condition. In addition, a jumper is described that can be interposed between a connector and adapter to correct a reverse polarity condition.
    • 描述了允许简单校正光纤极性反转问题的装置和方法。 描述了适配器,其具有用于在第一端或用户端以及第二端或承包端上接收连接器的插座。 两个插座都提供键控设置,使得连接器只有在相对于适配器正确定向时才能被接收。 然而,承包商端的钥匙安排是可逆的,使得连接器可以在承包商或安装者的指示下插入两个预定取向之一。 还描述了适配器仅接收物理上相反方向的连接器以抵消反极性条件。 此外,描述了可以插入在连接器和适配器之间以校正反极性状况的跳线。

    • The at least partially flexible connector assembly includes a slack storage tube connected to the first end of a fiber optic cable for loosely storing excess lengths of the optical fibers. The slack storage tube is typically at least partially flexible. By including a flexible slack storage tube, the connector assembly can be readily flexed, such as during installations of the fiber optic cable in which the end portion of the fiber optic cable must be bent relatively sharply. However, the slack storage tube does generally include crush resistance means for supporting the slack storage tube as the connector assembly is flexed such that the longitudinal bore defined by the slack storage tube remains open. The crush resistance means can include a wire helically wound about the slack storage tube. Alternatively, the slack storage tube can be a corrugated tube. The connector assembly also includes a number of ferrules mounted on the end portions of respective optical fibers as well as a ferrule holder for holding the ferrules in respective predetermined positions. In addition, the connector assembly can include a plug connected at a first end to the slack storage tube and having a second end that is adapted to receive and engage the ferrule holder. By disposing the ferrule holder within the second end of the plug, the plug effectively secures the ferrule holder and, in turn, the ferrules to the slack storage tube so as to form the connector assembly.
    • 所述至少部分柔性的连接器组件包括连接到光纤电缆的第一端的松弛存储管,用于松散地存储多余的光纤。 松弛储存管通常至少部分地具有柔性。 通过包括柔性松弛存储管,连接器组件可以容易地弯曲,例如在光纤电缆的安装期间,其中光纤电缆的端部必须相对尖锐地弯曲。 然而,松弛存储管通常包括用于在连接器组件弯曲时支撑松弛储存管的抗压装置,使得由松弛储存管限定的纵向孔保持打开。 抗挤压装置可以包括围绕松弛储存管螺旋缠绕的线。 或者,松弛存储管可以是波纹管。 连接器组件还包括安装在相应光纤的端部上的多个套圈以及用于将套圈保持在相应的预定位置的套圈保持器。 另外,连接器组件可以包括在第一端连接到松弛存储管并且具有适于接收和接合套圈保持器的第二端的插头。 通过将套圈保持器设置在插头的第二端内,插头将套圈保持器有效地固定,并且将套圈再次固定到松弛存储管上,从而形成连接器组件。

    • An optical fiber connector includes a connector housing and a monolithic ferrule disposed within the connector housing for maintaining a plurality of optical fibers in respective predetermined positions relative to the connector housing. The monolithic ferrule includes a monolithic ferrule body defining an internal cavity and a plurality of longitudinal bores through which the optical fibers extend. The optical fiber connector can also include an annular alignment key extending radially outward from the monolithic ferrule and having a position indicator adapted to mate with the connector housing such that the monolithic ferrule is held in a predetermined position relative to the connector housing. Accordingly, the optical fibers secured within the monolithic ferrule can be held in respective predetermined positions relative to the connector housing. The alignment key can be formed from the same piece of material from which the monolithic ferrule body is formed such that the alignment key is an integral part of the monolithic ferrule. The monolithic ferrule can also include ferrule alignment means for aligning the monolithic ferrule with another ferrule such that the optical fibers received by the longitudinal bores defined by the monolithic ferrule are aligned with the optical fibers secured within the other ferrule, thereby increasing the efficiency with which optical signals are transmitted therebetween.
    • 光纤连接器包括连接器壳体和设置在连接器壳体内的单片套圈,用于将多根光纤相对于连接器壳体保持在相应的预定位置。 单片套圈包括限定内腔的整体式套管体和多个纵向孔,光纤延伸通过该纵向孔。 光纤连接器还可以包括从单片套管径向向外延伸的环形对准键,并且具有适于与连接器壳体配合的位置指示器,使得整体式套圈相对于连接器壳体保持在预定位置。 因此,固定在单片套圈内的光纤能够相对于连接器壳体保持在相应的预定位置。 对准键可以由形成有单块套圈主体的同一块材料形成,使得对准键是整体式套圈的整体部分。 单片套管还可以包括用于将单片套圈与另一套圈对准的套圈对准装置,使得由单片套圈限定的纵向孔所容纳的光纤与固定在另一个套圈内的光纤对准,从而提高效率, 光信号在它们之间传输。

    • Methods are provided for validating the continuity of one or more optical fibers upon which a fiber optic connector is mounted. Typically, the fiber optic connector is mounted upon an optical field fiber by actuating a cam mechanism to secure the optical field fiber in position relative to an optical fiber stub. If subsequent testing indicates that the continuity of the optical field fiber and the optical fiber stub is unacceptable, the cam mechanism can be deactuated, the optical field fiber can be repositioned and the cam mechanism can be reactuated without having to remove and replace the fiber optic connector. In order to determine if continuity has been established between the optical field fibers and respective optical fiber stubs, a method is also provided that introduces light into at least one of each pair of optical field fibers and optical fiber stubs and that only secures the position of each optical field fiber relative to the respective optical fiber stub once the glow associated with each pair of optical field fibers and optical fiber stubs dissipates, which dissipation indicates the establishment of continuity. An improved multifiber connector and installation tool are also provided to facilitate the establishment and validation of the continuity of optical field fibers and optical fiber stubs in order to reduce the time and cost required to connectorize optical field fibers in the field.
    • 提供了用于验证安装有光纤连接器的一根或多根光纤的连续性的方法。 通常,通过致动凸轮机构将光纤连接器安装在光场光纤上,以将光纤光纤固定在相对于光纤短路的适当位置。 如果随后的测试表明光纤光纤和光纤短截线的连续性是不可接受的,则可以停用凸轮机构,光纤光纤可以重新定位,并且凸轮机构可以重新启动,而不必去除和替换光纤 连接器。 为了确定光纤光纤和各个光纤短截线之间是否已经建立了连续性,还提供了一种方法,其将光引入到每对光场纤维和光纤短截线中的至少一个中,并且仅保证 一旦与每对光场纤维和光纤短纤相关联的辉光消散,则每个光场光纤相对于相应的光纤短截线消散,这种耗散指示建立连续性。 还提供改进的多光纤连接器和安装工具,以便于建立和验证光纤光纤和光纤短路的连续性,以便减少在现场连接光场光纤所需的时间和成本。

    • A fiber optic cable connector for an optical ribbon comprises a multi-fiber ferrule having a plurality of stub fibers secured therein with ends of the fibers projecting beyond the end of the ferrule. The connector also includes first and second opposed splice members extending lengthwise from a first end proximate the end of the ferrule to an opposite second end, and the ends of the stub fibers extend between the opposed splice members at the first end thereof and are disposed in fiber-aligning grooves formed in the first splice member. The splice members are arranged with a fiber-receiving space therebetween to allow the optical fibers of the fiber optic ribbon to be inserted through the fiber-receiving space such that the optical fibers engage the grooves and are guided by the grooves into optically connected relation with the ends of the stub fibers. The connector further includes a cam movable between an initial position allowing the splice members to move apart to enlarge the fiber-receiving space to facilitate insertion of the optical fibers therein, and a final position in which the cam urges the splice members in the vicinity of the ends of the stub fibers toward each other to clamp the ribbon fibers therebetween. The rear end portion of the second splice member can pivot away from the first splice member to facilitate inserting the ribbon into the connector. A tool for installing the connector in the ribbon is also disclosed.
