Optical fiber array connectivity system for multiple transceivers and/or multiple trunk cables

摘要

A transition device for an optical fiber connection system adapted to interconnect a trunk cable with a plurality of transceivers includes: a first set of at least four optical fibers, each of the optical fibers having a trunk end and a transceiver end; a single trunk end terminal having a plurality of trunk ports arranged in a first row, each port connected with a respective one of the set of optical fibers at its trunk end, wherein a first axis of symmetry divides the ports; and a plurality of transceiver end terminals, each of the transceiver end terminals having at least one couplet of transceiver ports, each of the couplets of transceiver ports receiving a respective couplet of the set of optical fibers at their transceiver ends.
