20、Type MPO CONTENTS 1 INTRODUCTION 1 2 ADAPTER STANDARD 3 3 PLUG STANDARD 4 4 DEVICE RECEPTACLE STANDARD 7 5 APPLICATIONS 9 6 ANNEX A 28 TIA-604-5-E ii TIA-604-5-E 1 1 Introduction 1.1 Scope FOCIS 5 presents the intermateability standard for connectors with the commercial designation of MPO, and is us
21、ed as an addendum to TIA/EIA-604, Fiber Optic Connector Intermateability Standards. The provisions of TIA/EIA-604 apply to this document. 1.2 Objective Intermateability standards define the minimum physical attributes of mating connector components. Fully dimensioned components are not within the sc
22、ope or intent of FOCIS 5. The requirements of FOCIS 5 have been selected with the objectives of ensuring that any compatible combination of plugs and adapters, or plugs and device receptacles, conforming to the requirements of FOCIS 5 will mechanically intermate, and that intermated connector assemb
23、lies will meet their common level of performance. The common level of performance of an intermated connector assembly is the least demanding set of performance requirements in the separate performance specifications of each of the products in the assembly; see TIA/EIA 604. 1.3 Limitations Realizatio
24、n of the objectives for FOCIS 5 may be limited by the following considerations: 1.3.1 Configuration Options There are configuration options in FOCIS 5 that impose limitations on the combinations of plugs, adapters and device receptacles that should be combined in a connector assembly: Both plugs sho
25、uld have the same number of fiber rows, option m; Both plugs should have the same number of fibers per row, option n; Both plugs should have the same alignment pin/hole diameter range option, option t; Both plugs should have the same angles of contact, option a; For k=1 adapters, mated plugs must be
26、 of the same ferrule orientation, option o; For k=2 adapters, when mating plugs with a=8, one mated plug must have ferrule orientation o=1 and the other plug must have ferrule orientation o=2. Device receptacles with: option a=0 are only compatible with plugs of option a=0 option a=8 are only compat
27、ible with plugs of option a=8 and ferrule orientation option o=1 Each plug in an assembly should have different plug interface, option c. Device receptacles are defined only with option c = 1; Only plugs with option c = 2 should be inserted into a device receptacle. TIA-604-5-E 2 1.3.2 Common Perfor
28、mance The locations of the optical cores, as shown in Figure 3.2.3, are defined, without tolerances, by their true positions. To apply common performance the distribution of the optical cores, as shown in Figure 3.2.3, should be centered on their respective true positions. This standard does not con
29、trol the intrinsic loss that may occur between fibers in a connector assembly. Intrinsic loss between fibers must be added to the basic connector loss. 1.4 Drawing practices To be in compliance with ANSI and ISO Engineering Drawing Practices, the following shall apply: 1. Where a tolerance of form i
30、s not specified, the limits of the dimensions for a feature control the form as well as the size. The combined effects of size and form variations may not exceed the envelope of perfect form at the MMC (maximum material condition). 2. Where interrelated features of size (features shown with a common
31、 axis or center plane) have no geometric tolerance of location or runout specified, the limits of the dimensions for a feature control the location tolerance as well as the size. When the interrelated features are at the MMC, they shall be perfectly located to each other as indicated by the drawing.
32、 3. Where perpendicular features (features shown at right angles) have no geometric tolerance or orientation or runout specified, the limits of the dimensions for a feature control the orientation tolerance as well as the size. When perpendicular features are at the MMC, they shall be perfectly orie
33、nted to each other as indicated by the drawing. 4. As the size of a feature departs from the MMC, variations in form, location and orientation are permissible.

Typically this is a ferrule with a contact angle of 0 (i.e. a = 0). o = 1, designates a “down-angled” angled ferrule. It has a contact angle of 8 (i.e. a = 8) oriented such that the M

It has a contact angle of 8 (i.e. a = 8) oriented such that the MPO key is on the opposite side of the “flat” portion of th
49、e ferrule endface, i.e. the feature assigned dimension T in Figure 3.2.4. The ferrule orientation options are defined in Figure 3.2.4.
