STACKABLE MULTI-OPTICAL FIBER CONNECTOR MODULES AND DEVICES FOR ALIGNING SETS OF THE STACKABLE MULTI-OPTICAL FIBER CONNECTOR MODULES AND COUPLING OPTICAL SIGNALS BETWEEN THEM
STACKABLE MULTI-OPTICAL FIBER CONNECTOR MODULES AND DEVICES FOR ALIGNING SETS OF THE STACKABLE MULTI-OPTICAL FIBER CONNECTOR MODULES AND COUPLING OPTICAL SIGNALS BETWEEN THEM
The connector modules that are designed and shaped to mate with one side of the receptacle of the panel have mating devices that enable them to be stacked one atop the other inside of the receptacle in a relatively rigid stack. The connector modules that are designed and shaped to mate with the other side of the receptacle of the panel have mating devices that enable them to be held in slots that are slightly separated from one another by air gaps to allow them to “float” in the receptacle. By floating the connector modules in one side of the receptacle while having a relative rigid stack of connector modules in the other side of the receptacle, it is ensured that very precise optical alignment will be maintained between the respective lenses in the connector modules that face each other in the receptacle.
