Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to a non-contact lossless optical fiber jumper and a manufacturing method thereof.
Background
The existing optical fiber communication technology is widely applied to various fields, and along with the improvement of transmission rate and distance, the requirements of optical fiber communication quality and optical fiber end face quality are higher and higher. The optical fiber butt joint is different from the original cable butt joint, the cable only needs to be in good contact, and the butt joint of the end faces of the optical fibers needs to be strictly controlled in the aspects of up-down, left-right, front-back, inclination angle and the like so as to meet the requirement of good insertion loss. The size of the part of the optical fiber which is really used for light transmission is small, the part is basically in the micrometer level, the butt joint operation is inconvenient, and in practical use, a large-size precise outer sleeve such as a ceramic ring, stainless steel and the like is usually required to be additionally arranged on the optical fiber so as to be convenient for assembling and butt joint.
In order to meet the requirement of butt joint precision, the existing butt joint mode of the optical fiber end faces adopts pairwise butt joint of the same optical fiber end faces, and positioning and fixing are carried out through an external compact ceramic ring. Two butt joint modes are mainly adopted in optical fiber communication, one is that an optical fiber jumper and another optical fiber jumper are in butt joint through a flange plate (as shown in figure 1), and at the moment, a ceramic ferrule of the optical fiber jumper is exposed, and a jumper connector is generally called as a male connector; another form is that the optical fiber patch cord is butted with a plug-in optical adapter, and at this time, the ferrule of the optical adapter is recessed in a metal sleeve, which is generally called a recessed adapter as a female head (see fig. 2).
In the actual production and use process, the real light transmission region is the core region of the optical fiber, so that the damage of the ceramic end face basically does not influence the transmission of optical signals and can be disregarded. The damage of the optical fiber end face mainly has two conditions, namely, the damage of a light-transmitting area is caused in the butt joint process of the optical fiber end face; secondly, the ceramic end face is attached with dirt due to operation or environmental pollution, the dirt can randomly and irregularly move, when the dirt moves to the optical fiber end face, the optical signal transmission is affected, the optical fiber end face needs to be cleaned in time, and when the optical fiber end face is wiped or cleaned, the optical fiber end face is damaged (as shown in fig. 3).
In order to better solve the problem of damage to the end face of the optical fiber, the existing schemes mainly have two types, namely, a mode of grinding and repairing the poor jumper or the adapter of the end face of the optical fiber again after being disassembled; and secondly, a mode of attenuation sheet isolation is adopted, namely a gasket is inserted between the two butted optical fiber end faces, so that a certain horizontal distance is formed between the two optical fiber end faces, and the physical isolation of the two optical fiber end faces is realized.
In the disassembly and repair technology, when the jumper wire is butted with the jumper wire, the ceramic end face is exposed, the damage of the ceramic end face can be repaired by adopting a secondary grinding mode, although the repair can be carried out, the cost is higher, the 3D index, the plugging repeatability, the quadriversal property, the interchangeability and other qualities of the repaired product are poor, the repair times are limited, particularly, the female adapter basically fails, and the damaged end face of the female adapter is basically scrapped.
In the disassembly and repair technology, the mode of isolating the attenuation sheet is adopted to realize the non-contact end face protection of the optical fibers, and the ceramic ferrules outside the two optical fiber patch cords cannot be in tight butt joint due to the additional gaskets, so that the insertion loss is increased, the serious reliability and stability exist, the test result is inaccurate, and even the optical fiber link connection fails.
