Optical fiber connector structure

Optical fiber connector is designed to achieve fiber channel connection, which is widely used in optic fiber communication systems, with various types and structures, but basic structure of various type optical connectors is same, most fiber optic connector are using high precision components for fiber optic connection implementations, high precision component is composed by 2 pins and 1 coupling tube.

Penetrating and fixing fiber optic into pins, then polish pin surface, alignment is achieved in coupling tube.

Outer component material is metal and non metallic material.

Surface grinding treatment is needed for pins mating interface.

Coupling tube common material is ceramic and bronze, etc, which is consisted of two half cylinders.

Most fiber optic connectors are with metal or plastic flange for fixing function.

To improve the alignment of fiber optic, the precision requirement of pins and coupling tube shall be increased.

Global optical fiber connector market and investment opportunities

The growth of bandwidth requirement promoted international optical communication development and fiber optics has become the most important transmission medium for communication area.

As requirement of fiber-to-the-home service growing fast in Europe, USA, and Japan and the market of fiber optics commutation is not developed completely, still with great potential. This also push the development of fiber optics components.

Categories of fiber optics products are optical fiber, cable, optics active component, optics passive component and transmission device, and it request strictly and cost highly.

Main categories of optics passive component are fiber optical connector, coupler, isolator, attenuator, optical add-drop mux, optics switch, etc.  The largest percent of these optics passive components is optical fiber connector, and then the second is optics coupler and isolator.
