Fiber Optic Contacts
Jewel Ferrule Alignment System
Cannon's patented* optical contacts allow the
use of all standard fibers via the field-proven
jewel ferrule alignment system in a size 16 pin
or socket contact. The jewel ferrule system
provides precise alignment regardless of fiber
size, accommodates fiber tolerances, elim-
inates the requirement for a minimum end gap,
and alloys for spring loading of contacts.

Solid State Epoxy
Since the advent of fiber optics, fibers have ^Pin
been terminated in optical contacts using mes-
sy two-part liquid expoxy. This process is cum-
bersome and not conducive to high volume
prodution.
Optical contacts are now available with solid
state epoxy. The fiber is inserted into the
contact and the epoxy is reflowed in a cure
fixture. No mixing of liquids is required; the
volume and flow viscosity is controlled, result-
ing in a perfect bond and the elimination of
clean-up.
