Abstract
A technique facilitates assembly and deployment of a sand screen assembly string. The sand screen assembly string is constructed by providing sequential base pipe joints combined with corresponding alternate path tubes. The sequential base pipe joints are joined together in a manner which brings sequential, corresponding alternate path tubes into close proximity with each other at a location external to the sequential base pipe joints. The sequential, corresponding alternate path tubes are readily coupled together by a connector which is movably mounted along at least one of the alternate path tubes for movement into engagement with the other alternate path tube.
