Non Contact Fiber Connector

Non Contact fiber connector(NC)  is the next generation optical fiber connector invented by Arrayed Fiberoptics, where there is no contact between fiber surfaces. There are two key elements in the NC connector, 1) the fiber surface is recessed, 2) the fiber surface has an anti-reflection coating. It offers vastly improved optical performance and longevity. Because the fiber surface is recessed and do not contact the mating surface. Nowadays, there are “AirMT” from Senko and MNC(Non contact fiber connector MPO) or NC-type(LC, SC, FC )from AFC.
What are the features of them?
All traditional fiber optic connectors transit the signals via physical contact. It is easy affecting the whole network stability once there is any dirt or dust can’t realize each fiber physical contact for 48Fiber high density in physical MPO connector.
The non contact fiber connector eliminates the problems raised by physical contact connectors, and have following features:
1.Low insertion loss average under 0.1dB, High Return Loss SM 65dB
2.Guaranteed random mating
3.Longer service time, for MPO it has over 2000times, 10times of standard without damage, other type over 5000times
4.Compatible with existing fiber connectors
5.Insenstive to dust and contaminations, withstand severe vibrations
6.Higher cost than standard, but lower operational cost.
