Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Optical connector is an essential component of optical network systems. In fiber to the home (FTTH) systems, the optical connectors are used in both indoor environments such as buildings and in outdoor equipments such as aerial closures. To confirm the durability of optical connectors employing PC connection in actual outdoor environments, since 1997 we have been performing a reliability test on SC and MU connectors installed in a high temperature and high humidity location. We measured the ferrule end dimensions and optical performance of the SC and MU connectors. We confirmed that the SC and MU connectors employing the PC connection have the good durability in an actual outdoor environment.
