LOW-COST, HIGH-PERFORMANCE, ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE (EMI) SHIELDED SINGLEMODE FIBER OPTIC CONNECTOR ADAPTERS

摘要

EMI shielded fiber optic connector adapters facilitate connection of optical components in high-density transmission equipment while maintaining the important interference barrier that metal enclosures provide. Plated adapter surfaces, along with an elastomeric shield, provide the required EMI barrier integrity. Telcordia GR-326-CORE product qualification data, EMI shielding-effectiveness results, and x-ray diffraction plating-thickness measurements will be presented and discussed.
