ST Connector Kits Optoplast Datasheet

Product information "ST Connector Kits"

ST/PC; Ferrule Outer Diameter 2.5 mm; Bore Tolerance 0/+4 µm; Crimp 1.6, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 mm

ST (Straight Tip) fiber optic cable connectors use a spring-loaded bayonet-style plug and socket. Within ST connectors, the fiber is inserted in a relatively long, cylindrical and floating ferrule with 2.5 mm diameter, providing good mechanical isolation of the contact.

A mechanical key prevents fiber rotation when the plug is attached to the receptacle. While the connector is preferably used for multi mode fibers it can also connect single mode fibers.

Optoplast’s ST crimp type connector kits are suitable for application with single mode and multi mode optical fibers. Crimp is available for 1.6, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 mm fiber optic cable, while ST connector kits for Ø 900 μm buffer don’t provide a crimp option.

Optoplast ST connector kits are supplied as standard in two configurations – multi mode (black boot) and single mode PC (yellow boot). ST/APC connector kits are also available on request. For each of the different cable diameters, users can choose from a different selection of the additional boot colours white, blue, red, beige and green (see datasheet). Other boot colours are available on request.

90° boots (black) are available in 2 and 3 mm as accessory, suitable for 1.6 to 3 mm fiber optic cable. Further accessories include a dust cap with latch for dust protection. Each separate component of the ST crimp type connector kits is packed as standard in transparent plastic bags of 500 pieces. All components of the connector are RoHS and REACH compliant.

PLC Polarization Controllers

480-1650 nm; IL <0.05, <0.5 dB; RL >45, >55, >65 dB; Extinction Ratio >40 dB; Connection Options Bulkhead Connectors, Fiber Pigtails, Drop-inLunas’ PLC series of polarization controllers use patented fiber squeezing technology to control the polarization. The PLC polarization controller modules are available with bulkhead connectors, with fiber pigtails, or as drop-in versions that use fiber already in the system. For OEM applications where space is at a premium, a miniature PLC polarization controller module is available.The PLC-002/M02 version of the PLC polarization controller is conveniently pigtailed with or without connectors. It can be spliced to other components with minimal loss and is ideal for controlling the polarization state of light in any single mode fiber optic system. It is available in a regular (PLC-002) or miniature (PLC-M02) size for maximum flexibility.PLC-003/006 is the in-line version of the PLC polarization controller module. It can be inserted into a fiber optic system to control the polarization state of light without having to disconnect any part of the system. It can be used by simply inserting a length of fiber into the slot located on top of the device. The miniature version can be inserted in even tighter spaces in a fiber optic module.The PLC-004/005 fully connectorized polarization controller module comes with either male (PLC-005) or female (PLC-004) connectors, thus eliminating the headaches of fiber pigtails. Customers can use the bulkhead connectors of their choice. Although the unit comes with FC type connectors, it can interface with ST and SC type connectors with industry standard FC/ST or FC/SC adapters . The device is especially suitable for interconnecting polarization maintaining (PM) fibers using standard connectors without having to align the birefringent axes of the PM fibers. Optional scales allow easy replication of earlier settings, a feature highly desirable in laboratories for repeating polarization adjustments.Key Features:Low Intrinsic Insertion Loss: <0.05 dB, <0.5 dB With ConnectorsLow Back Reflection – Return Loss: >65 dB Without Connectors, >45, >55 dB With ConnectorsInsensitive to Wavelength VariationsCompact Size – Dimensions: PLC-002/M02: 102/76 x 25.4 x 27/27.7 mm PLC-003/006: 76 x 25.4/16 x 27.7/17 mm PLC-004/005: 102 x 25.4 x 27.7 mmMultiple Connection Options: Bulkhead Connectors, Fiber Pigtails, Drop-inWorks With Fibers of Any Size (PLC-003/006)Operating Wavelength: 480 to 1650 nmExtinction Ratio: >40 dBApplications: Sensor System Adjustment; OCT System Tuning; Antenna Remoting Systems; Laboratory Setups; Teaching Laboratories; High-speed Telecommunication Systems; WDM Systems; CATV Systems; Fiber Laser; Fiber Sensor Systems; PM Fiber Systems
