IEC 61754-7 pdf download Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components – Fibre optic connector interfaces – Part 7: Type MPO connector family
1 Scope
This part of IEC 61 754 defines the standard interface dimensions for type MPO family of connectors.
2 Description
The parent connector for type MPO connector family is a multiway plug connector charac- terized by a rectangular ferrule normally 6,4 mm × 2,5 mm which utilizes two pins of 0,7 mm diameter as its alignment. It is applicable to a joint of multiple fibres up to 1 2 fibres by arraying them between two pin-positioning holes in the ferrule. Furthermore, it is capable of joining up to 24 fibres by arraying them with a two layer arrangement. The connector includes a push-pull coupling mechanism and a ferrule spring loaded in the direction of the optical axis. The connector has a single male key which may be used to orient and limit the relative position between the connector and the component to which it is mated.
Connector interfaces are configured using a female plug without pins, a male plug with pins fixed and an adaptor as shown in Figure 1 . The female plug is intermateable with the male plug.
Moreover, connector interfaces between the female plug and the male plug are configured by applying a backplane housing and a printed board housing instead of the adaptor.
