Optical Flex Fiber Cable Assemblies

Fiber Flex optical backplanes respond to the increasingly present requirement for wire and cable management to maximize airflow inside LRUs and communication systems. Fiber Flex planes provide a manageable method of routing fiber from interface to interface and from shelf-to-shelf. Designed for versatility, standard Fiber Flex circuitry provides high-density routing on a flexible, flame-resistant substrate.

Datasheet(s)

Fiber Optic sub-systems often need to be quickly diagnosed and replaced on backplanes without disrupting the entire LRU. Design flexibility is a key element to simplify system architect’s need to meet the particular demands of each application. Available in virtually any routing scheme, fiber can be routed point-to-point, in a shuffle or in a set pattern to meet specific application requirements. Direct or fusion-spliced terminations are available, input and outputs to ribbon, discrete are easily integrated in the design along with any mix of fiber sizes.
