SYSTEM FOR TERMINATING OPTICAL FIBERS IN A FIBER OPTIC CONNECTOR

摘要

A fiber optic connector assembly includes an outer housing (16) having an interior cavity (18). A termination module (20) is insertable into the cavity and includes a ferrule (24) for terminating a distal end of at least one optical fiber stub. A base (26) is attached to the ferrule and includes a channel for splicing a proximal end of the optical fiber stub to a fiber end of a fiber optic cable. A cover (34, 36) is positionable onto the base for holding the fiber stub and fiber end in the channel. A clamp (38) is provided for holding the cover onto the base. A latch (38c) is provided between the clamp and the outer housing for holding the termination module in the cavity of the housing.
