03 Apr 2020 The Diamond Expanded Beam (XB) series includes a range of non-contact lensed connectors. The Diamond patented lensed beam ferrule is based on the Expanded Beam principle and fits into a variety of connector housings, due to its compact design. Unlike conventional ferrules, the lensed ferrule operates on the Expanded Beam principle, ensuring reliable and maintenance free optical connections with insensivity to contaminants. The use of extremely precise components and unique assembly techniques results in a highly repeatable, low insertion loss ferrule. This method opens new perspectives in the context of optical connections, where mating cycles, insensitivity to debris, reliability and low losses are required. |
