Abrégé

A passive optical alignment coupling between two bodies each having a complementary interstitial two-dimensional planar array of protrusions defining an array of interstices. Each array of protrusions defines an array of discrete protrusions separated and isolated from one another on the surface of the corresponding bodies. When the bodies are pressed together, the array of protrusions defined on one body intermesh with protrusions defined on the other body with protrusions of one body received in corresponding interstices defined on the other body. The protrusion surfaces of each adjacent pair of protrusions are in point contact. The first body is removably attachable to the second body 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, thereby passively aligning the first body to the second body.

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

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 optical converter unit converts dedicated transmission and receiving optical pathways into a single bi-directional transmission and receiving pathway. The converter unit includes a fiber optic circulator having a receiving port, a transmission port, and a bi-directional port. A bi-directional interface mechanically couples to a first optical waveguide to optically connect the first optical waveguide to the bi-directional port so that optical signals are transmitted to the first optical waveguide and received from the first optical waveguide via the bi-directional port. A transmission and receiving interface mechanically couples to a second optical waveguide to optically connect the second optical waveguide to the transmission port to transmit optical signals to the second optical waveguide. The transmission and receiving interface also mechanically couples to a third optical waveguide to optically connect the third optical waveguide to the receiving port for sending optical signals to the receiving port.

Abrégé

An optical connection system for use with a receptacle and an optical cable assembly includes an adapter and connector. The adapter has an adapter latch element, and the connector has a connector latch element. A delatch actuator with a delatch arm is disposed on the connector housing for movement from a locking position to an unlocking position. One of the adapter latch element and connector latch element is a bendable latch hook and the other is a locking channel. When the connector housing is mated with the adapter, the delatch arm allows the bendable latch hook to latch with the locking channel in the locking position and unlatches the bendable latch hook from the locking channel as it moves to the unlocking position. An actuator lock movably supports a blocking member on the connector for selectively blocking the delatch actuator from moving to the unlocking position.

Abrégé

A ferrule endface inspection tool with a straight tip is provided. The tool deploys a wedged prism at the inspection end or the end of the tool nearer the ferrule endface. The prism endface is cut at an offset angle of about eight degrees and thus allows light exiting the prism to enter the ferrule end face with an opposing APC ferrule tip. Since the entry is at zero degrees into the opposting APC ferrule endface then under Snell's Law there is no theoretical signal loss, and the returned or reflected light signal is imaged at no loss.

Abrégé

Fiber optic connection assemblies that may include hybrid adapters and connector assemblies are generally described. The hybrid adapter may be configured to connect a first connector type and a second connector type, the first connector type being different from the second connector type. For example, the first connector type may be a micro connector and the second connector type may be an LC connector. A connector assembly may be configured as a micro connector having a tension element configured to facilitate optimized optical performance by spring loading the ferrules while maintaining a small form factor.

Abrégé

Connector assemblies having an adjustable polarity are described. For example, at least two ferrules may be arranged in a housing of the connector assembly within independent frame plugs in a certain polarity. A top portion of the housing may be removed to allow access to the frame plugs. Accordingly, an installer may open the housing, switch the polarity of the ferrules, and then re-couple the top portion to the housing. In another example, the connector assembly may include a latch that may rotate about the connector assembly from a first polarity position to a second polarity position. The connector assembly may include a compression element that may facilitate the rotation of the latch when the compression element is compressed. In this manner, the latch may be rotated to a different polarity position to allow the connector assembly to be connected to an adapter using a different polarity.
