摘要
We have found that, for dispersion-shifted fiber (DSF) ribbons, the accuracy with which the fiberhole is positioned in the connector ferrule must be less than 0.6 mum to realize a low average insertion loss of about 0.1 dB, By using the high-precision ferrules, we realized MT-type connectors that achieved a very low average insertion loss of 0.11 dB with a maximum of 0.47 dB, These connectors also satisfied mechanical and environmental stability requirements. We have confirmed that our high-precision MT-type connectors can be used for joining DSF ribbon.
