Embodiment Construction

[0025] In the following Detailed Description, reference is made to the accompanying drawings which form a part hereof, and in which are shown by way of illustrations specific embodiments in which the invention may be practiced. In this regard, directional terms such as "top", "bottom", "front", "rear", "in front", "forward", and "aft" refer to one or Multiple drawing orientations are used. Because components of embodiments of the present invention may be positioned in a number of different orientations, directional terms are used for purposes of description and are in no way limiting. It is to be understood that other embodiments may be utilized and structural or logical changes may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.

[0026] Optical communication systems use more and more fiber optic cables. Glass optical fibers carry data-carrying light across the network. Ideally, the incident light intensity injected into the fiber will be extracted from ...

Abstract

An optical fiber connection system configured to interconnect a first and second optical fibers is described herein.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a ferrule-free fiber optic connection system for interconnecting a plurality of first optical fibers and a plurality of second optical fibers, the ferrule-free fiber optic connection system comprising a fiber optic plug and a receptacle. Background technique [0002] Communications network owners and operators are faced with an increasing demand to deliver faster and better services to their customers. They can meet these needs for greater bandwidth by incorporating fiber optics into their networks. Fiber optic cables are used in optical networks to transport signals between access nodes for voice, video and data information. [0003] Some conventional fiber optic cables include fiber optic ribbons that include groups of coated optical fibers arranged in a planar array. The optical fibers in the ribbon are arranged substantially parallel to each other. Fiber optic ribbons are typically interconnected using multi-fibe...
