FIBER OPTIC CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME

摘要

A method for manufacturing a fiber optic connector assembly, comprising: providing a ferrule having a first fiber and a cable having a second fiber; adjusting the ferrule to locate the first fiber at a first predetermined orientation, and adjusting the cable to locate the second fiber at a second predetermined orientation; and inserting the first fiber located at the first predetermined orientation and the second fiber located at the second predetermined orientation into a alignment tool received in a housing of a fiber optic connector. Wherein the first and second predetermined orientations are set so that a distance between a center of a fiber core of the first fiber and a center of a fiber core of the second fiber is equal to an absolute value of a difference between a distance from a center of a coat layer to the center of the fiber core of the first fiber and a distance from a center of a coat layer to the center of the fiber core of the second fiber when the first fiber located at the first predetermined orientation and the second fiber located at the second predetermined orientation are inserted into the alignment tool.

1. A method for manufacturing a fiber optic connector assembly, comprising steps of:
S100: providing a ferrule (100) having a first fiber (10) and a cable (400) having a second fiber (20); S200: adjusting the ferrule (100) to locate the first fiber (10) at a first predetermined orientation, and adjusting the cable (400) to locate the second fiber (20) at a second predetermined orientation; and S300: inserting the first fiber (10) located at the first predetermined orientation and the second fiber (20) located at the second predetermined orientation into a alignment tool (700) received in a housing (600) of a fiber optic connector, wherein the first and second predetermined orientations are set so that a distance (e) between a center (C2) of a fiber core of the first fiber (10) and a center (C4) of a fiber core of the second fiber (20) is equal to an absolute value of a difference between a distance (el) from a center (C1) of a coat layer to the center (C2) of the fiber core of the first fiber (10) and a distance (e2) from a center (C3) of a coat layer to the center (C4) of the fiber core of the second fiber (20) when the first fiber (10) located at the first predetermined orientation and the second fiber (20) located at the second predetermined orientation are inserted into the alignment tool (700).
