Mechanical interface between a fiber optic cable and a fiber optic connector |
摘要 |
A fiber optic connector and cable assembly is disclosed herein. The fiber optic connector and cable assembly includes a cable having at least one optical fiber, a jacket surrounding the optical fiber and at least one strength member for reinforcing the fiber optic cable. The fiber optic connector and cable assembly also includes a fiber optic connector having a main connector body having a distal end and a proximal end. The fiber optic connector also includes a ferrule supporting an end portion of the optical fiber. The ferrule is mounted at the distal end of the main connector body. The fiber optic connector further includes a spring for biasing the ferrule in a distal direction and a spring push for retaining the spring within the main connector body. The spring push is mounted at the proximal end of the main connector body. The spring push includes a main body and a stub that projects proximally outwardly from the main body. A crimp band is provided for securing the fiber optic cable to the fiber optic connector. The crimp band includes a first portion crimped down on the stub. The strength member is secured between the first portion of the crimp band and the stub. The crimp band also includes a second portion crimped down on the jacket of the fiber optic cable. The crimp band further includes an inner surface having gripping structures for gripping the strength member and/or the jacket. |
