A fiber array device configured to secure and align one or more optical fiber bundles as part of a main body using a fixing material. The fixing material is light cured or room temperature cured. Main body forms an angle from a first direction along a second direction, and a recess the optical bundles are laid within and in which the fixing material is applied. Each individual optical fiber is laid within a groove formed in a lid, the base portion or both the lid and the base portion. The fiber array device is secured to a printed circuit board to form a communication path between the optical fiber and electronics of the board.

Fiber array assembly using a fixing material for securing fiber optic bundles therein

An optical fiber adapter includes a main body, two hook members, a hollow middle member and an elastic shutter member. The hook member has two hooks and two opposing walls that define a passage. The main body has an access opening on a first wall thereof for the two hook members and middle member to place within the passage of the main body. The middle member is positioned between the two hook members when the hook members and middle member are placed in the passage of the main body. The shutter member includes a fixing portion, a shutter plate and a connecting portion. The fixing portion is positioned in the accommodation recess formed on the first wall of the first hook member. The connecting portion connects the fixing portion with the shutter plate. The shutter plate extends from the connecting portion and into the passage.

Optical fiber adapter with shutter member

An optical fiber adapter according to the present disclosure includes a main body and an elastic shutter member. The main body has an accommodation room defined by a first wall, a second wall, a third wall and a fourth wall, wherein the first wall faces the third wall and connects with the second and fourth walls. An indentation is formed outside the accommodation room and on the third wall. The shutter member includes a fixing portion positioned within the accommodation room and on the third wall, a shutter plate, a connecting portion connecting the fixing portion with the shutter plate, and a hooking portion extending from the connecting portion to hook on to the indentation on the third wall. The shutter plate extends from the connecting portion and into the accommodation room.

Shutter member for optical fiber adapter and optical fiber adapter with the same

An optical fiber connector and adapter according to the present invention are provided. At least one indentation is formed on the connector and a protrusion mating with the indentation is formed within the adapter thereby physically limiting the insertion of a connector into a particular adapter.

Optical fiber connector and adapter

A one-piece LC type optical fiber adapter is provided. The LC type adapter of the present invention has fewer parts than a conventional one. Therefore, it is simpler and easier to assemble the LC type adapter of the present invention. In addition, the main body of the LC type adapter is unitary thereby avoiding the prior art problem that the stresses cause the two halves of the adapter to separate from each other after time.

One-piece LC type optical fiber adapter

The present invention generally relates to a method for manufacturing a one-piece LC type optical fiber adapter, more particularly to a method that is simpler and easier to assemble the LC type optical fiber adapter.

Method for manufacturing one-piece LC type optical fiber adapter

An MPO type optical fiber adapter according to the present invention is provided. The main body of the MPO type adapter is unitary thereby avoiding the prior art problem that the stresses cause the two halves of the adapter to separate from each other after time.

MPO type optical fiber adapter

An optical fiber adapter is provided. The adapter includes a plurality of walls which defines an accommodation room adapted for being coupled with an optical fiber connector. A protrusion in the accommodation room is disposed on one of the walls. The adapter further includes a shutter member having a first parallel portion, a second parallel portion substantially parallel to the first parallel portion and a connecting portion connecting the first and second parallel portions. The first and second parallel portions and the connecting portion together define a clamping portion. The clamping portion clamps the protrusion. An elastic shutter plate extends from the first parallel portion and into the accommodation room.

An optical fiber connector includes a connector housing, a ferrule and a clamping assembly. The connector hosing has a front end and a rear end. The ferrule is disposed in the connector housing and projects from the front end of the connector housing. The clamping assembly is disposed in the connector housing for mounting the ferrule, and includes a hollow housing and a cam member, wherein the cam member includes a groove adapted to clamp a terminating fiber when a cam effect between the hollow housing and the cam member is generated and further the cam effect causes the groove of the cam member to generate a clamping force.
