| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to an optical fiber communication component ( 1 ), and particularly a connector receptacle ( 10 ) for connecting to a connector plug ( 20 ) having an optical fiber ( 6 ) mounted within a projecting cylindrical ferrule. The connector receptacle ( 10 ) comprises a housing ( 2 ) that has a passageway ( 3 ) with an entrance for receiving the ferrule ( 7 ). A split sleeve clamp ( 27 ) is seated within the passageway ( 3 ) and has an opening oriented towards the entrance for receiving the projecting ferrule ( 7 ). A hollow sleeve ( 23 ) having a cylindrical outer surface ( 36 ) and an axially extending open channel ( 37 ), is gripped by the split sleeve clamp to define the diameter of the opening to the clamp. The open channel ( 37 ) extends along the longitudinal axis ( 5 ) of the passageway ( 3 ) to allow optical radiation ( 50 ) to be transmitted through the channel ( 37 ) to/from said connector plug ( 20 ). |
