What Is Important For A Fiber Optic Connector? How Does The MC5 Compare?
1. Ease of Maintenance & Use of Common Tools
Simple Screwdriver Used To Remove Insert For Ease Of Cleaning
2. Good Optical Performance
Low Insertion Loss, Physical Contact Interface
3. Repeatable Performance
Optimized Design, Fully Floating Alignment Sleeve
4. Maintenance Aging (Multiple Mating/Demating and Exposure To Contaminants)
Easy To Clean All Optical Surfaces + Replace Broken Sleeves
5. Field Repairable
Terminates Like Standard PC Connector
6. Multiple Suppliers
Glenair in Tool-Up Phase per Eurofighter Program
