Abrégé

An LBM package and method for packaging an LBM using a stamped metallic mirror array that folds light beams, correct beam shapes, fold and/or redirect beam propagations. The mirror array can be integrated or assembled inside an LBM to provide beam shaping and redirection of the high-power beams near the laser diode. The LBM incorporates a stamped metallic freeform mirror or reflector with an off-axis parabolic shape is configured to fold and collimate laser beam. A precision stamping process is deployed to produce an array of miniature, freeform mirrors in high volume applications. The mirror array simplifies the optical path and eliminates passive components such as refractive lenses and dichroic filters that combine RGB beams. Stamped metallic optical components with micro-scale freeform mirrors in the LBM are tolerant of high temperatures and can thermally diffuse heat away from the reflective surface for high power applications.

Abrégé

In a fiber optic connection system, an adapter has an expandable wall portion that snaps onto a connector and latches with a latch knob of the connector housing. A lock and an extractor are disposed on the connector housing. During insertion, the extractor is in a forward position as the connector housing is inserted into the adapter. The adapter moves the lock backward relative to the housing and extractor, toward an unlocking position, until the adapter snaps onto the latch knob. Then the lock returns to the locking position to lock the connector to the adapter. To extracts the connector, the extractor is pulled backward. This moves the lock backward to unlock the connector from the adapter. Further pulling unlatches the adapter from the latch knob by expanding the expandable wall portion and extracts the connector.

Abrégé

In a fiber optic connector, a ferrule body is received in a connector housing. A displaceable guide pin is movable in relation to the ferrule body. A spring yieldably biases the displaceable guide pin forward along a longitudinal axis of the fiber optic connector. The displaceable guide pin is displaced backward along the longitudinal axis in relation to the ferrule body and resiliently compresses the spring as the fiber optic connector is connected to another fiber optic component. In a multifiber ferrule assembly, a ferrule base is connected to a ferrule body. A displaceable guide pin is movably connected to the ferrule body for movement in relation to the ferrule body along a longitudinal axis between an extended position and a retracted position. A spring between the displaceable guide pin and the ferrule base yieldably biases the displaceable guide pin to the extended position.

An optical fiber array module that can accommodate variations in diameters of the optical fibers in the fiber array within anticipated tolerance, to accurately and securely retain the optical fibers in grooves in the module without using any solder interface or epoxy interface between the optical fibers and the supporting components. The fiber array module of the present invention relies on elasto-plastic interfaces for mechanical deformation, as opposed to solder reflow or epoxy curing, to accommodate variations in diameters of the optical fibers in the fiber array as supported in grooves between a substrate and a cover.

Abrégé

A fiber optic connector terminates a drop cable. A connector housing can include a back post where the drop cable to enters the housing. A cable clamp insert is least partially received in the back post. The cable clamp insert defines a passage for receiving the drop cable. A crimp ring is crimped onto the back post to secure the cable clamp insert to the housing and clamp the cable clamp insert onto the drop cable. Fiber optic connectors can also have a cable clamp insert and a cable clamp retainer that couples to the rear end portion of the housing whereby the cable clamp retainer pushes the cable clamp insert forward in the housing and applies an increasing force to create a tight connection between the housing and the cable clamp insert.

Abrégé

A passive optical alignment coupling between an optical connector having a first two-dimensional planar array of alignment features and a foundation having a second two-dimensional planar array of alignment features. One of the arrays is a network of orthogonally intersecting longitudinal grooves defining an array of discrete protrusions that are each in a generally pyramidal shape with a truncated top separated from one another by the orthogonally intersecting longitudinal grooves, and the other array is a network of longitudinal cylindrical protrusions. The cylindrical protrusions are received in the grooves, with protrusion surfaces of the cylindrical protrusions in contact with groove surfaces and the top of the discrete protrusions contacting the surface bound by the cylindrical protrusions. The optical connector is removably attachable to the foundation to define a demountable coupling, with the first array of alignment features against the second array of alignment features to define an elastic averaging coupling.

An optoelectronic module and optoelectronic connector assemblies can be used for releasable connection of a laser source to the module from a location exterior to the module. The construction of the optoelectronic connector assemblies is such that both in connection and disconnection, the electrical contacts are broken before the optical contacts so that the laser may power down before the optical connection is broken. The optoelectronic connection assemblies have blind mating features. Some versions are free of any latching or mechanical interconnection of the optoelectronic connector assemblies to each other. A spring has a construction which permits it to be received onto a cable by lateral movement of the spring.

Abrégé

An integral fan-out connector assembly for fiber optic cables includes a connector housing that provides an integrated fan-out housing and connection adapter. The fan-out connector housing may be configured with a variety of cable adapters, and may be installed as a ‘plug and play’ type solution where it will be ready to accept a feed cable for use when needed. A bracket may support the fan-out system on a support structure as a pole. The bracket can facilitate plug-and-play use of the fan-out system.

Abrégé

Systems and methods of using a multiport assembly and associated components are disclosed. The multiport assembly can include a multiport device that communicatively couples multiple sets or pairs of connectors, such as optical connectors or electrical connectors, together. The multiport assembly can also include an auxiliary port device that couples to the multiport device to expand the capacity of the multiport assembly. Both the multiport and auxiliary port devices can be selectively configured to receive specific types of connectors by selectively coupling to different types of adapters, where the types of adapters correspond to the types of connectors. When coupled to the multiport or auxiliary port devices, the adapters facilitate the formation of the communication between its corresponding set of connectors.

Abrégé

An optical fiber connector assembly comprises at least one connector having a latching arm for coupling to an adapter, and a remote release tab having a protrusion configured to cooperate with the adapter to depress said latching arm when the remote release tab is pulled relative to the adapter. The optical fiber connector assembly may further be configured to allow reversing its polarity.

Abrégé

A ferrule holder assembly can support groupings of a transceiver ferrules in an optical connector interface of an optical transceiver. A first holder body holds a first grouping of transceiver ferrules and has a holder-to-holder interface. A second, typically identical, holder body holds a second grouping of transceiver ferrules. The holder-to-holder interface of the first holder body engages the holder-to-holder interface of the second holder body to operatively align the first holder body with the second holder body to position the first grouping of transceiver ferrules and the second grouping of transceiver ferrules in the optical connector interface for making optical connections to one or more optical connectors plugged into the optical connector interface. The ferrule holder assembly can be used in combination with pre-terminated fiber arrays to couple an optical interface to a circuit board in a transceiver.
