  • High density multiple fiber optic connector
    Patent number: 6485189
    Abstract: A fiber optic plug for connecting to a receptacle of a small format optoelectronic package or device. The fiber optic plug includes a body and ferrules attached to the body. Each ferrule has an aperture for receiving and holding an optical fiber and each ferrule has a diameter substantially equal to 1.25 mm. The aperture of each adjacent ferrule is separated by a distance of approximately 3.125 mm. The ferrules exist in a plane.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 9, 2001
    Date of Patent: November 26, 2002
    Assignee: Stratos Lightwave, Inc.
    Inventors: Patrick B. Gilliland, Carlos Jines, Anastasia Bardouniotis

  • Method of forming a multi-terminator optical interconnect system
    Patent number: 6478475
    Abstract: A method of forming a multi-terminator optical interconnect system. The method including the steps of molding and mating. The step of molding includes molding two ferrule halves where each ferrule half has a mating end and a fiber-receiving end and an alignment tang. The mating end includes multiple fiber-alignment grooves. Each ferrule half also has hole for receiving a guide pin. The step of mating includes mating two of the ferrule halves to each other so as to form a ferrule structure.

  • Method of forming a multi-terminator optical interconnect system
    Publication number: 20020003932
    Abstract: MT ferrule. A polymer fiber optic MT ferrule includes hermaphroditic L-shaped halves having multiple fibers mounted in V-grooves formed within surfaces of ferrule halves. Ferrule halves include holed walls perpendicular to the major surface of the V-grooves for providing alignment of the ferrule to guide pins of an MT receptacle having an alignment assembly and an alignment member mounted within the alignment assembly to provide for precision alignment.
