3M Expanded Beam Optical Ferrules
The future of optical connectivity for data centers comes into alignment.
The 3M™ Expanded Beam Optical ferrule features a design that collimates the light beam and sends it, without physical contact, between parallel-aligned ferrules. This virtually eliminates exposure to dust* and can reduce or eliminate the need for cleaning.
-
Reduce the gap between you and your revenueThe ferrule design for 3M EBO requires virtually no inspection and greatly reduces or eliminates the need for cleaning. Connections requiring ~3 minutes installation time per physical contact connectors can be reduced to as little as ~30 seconds when using 3M EBO ferrules* – vital for hyperscale applications where inspection and cleaning can tack on hours, days and even weeks to deployment deadlines.
-
Low mating force for high scalabilitySingle mode or multimode 12F or 16F fibers align precisely into grooves on genderless ferrule without the need for holes or alignment pins. This design also provides a suspended-fiber feature that allows for insertion force less than 1 newton, so multiple ferrules can be stacked into a single connector.
