Connector for microSD Cards has compact design.

RoHS-compliant 2900 Series measures 11 x 15 x 1 mm, with actual footprint of 14.0 x 14.2 x 0.8 mm, and can be used in phones that use removable flash memory cards. Card is locked when mated and can be removed using smooth push-push eject mechanism. To promote card retention, capture mechanism prevents memory card from flying out upon ejection. Card detection indicator displays whether card is in...

Connectors work in temperatures from -40 to 185 deg F.

Hot Melt ST, SC, and FC fiber optic connectors are approved for indoor and outdoor use as single-mode and multimode connectors. They meet EIA/TIA 568B standards for outdoor applications, and incorporate reheatable adhesive technology and physical contact, pre-radiused zirconia ceramic ferrule technology. Insertion loss values are less than 0.2 dB. Single-mode and multimode units are tested to...

Erbium-Doped Fibers operate in C-Band and L-Band.

Rare-earth FS-ER-7A28 and FS-ER-7B28 are for use in C-Band and L-Band, respectively. Both work in erbium-doped optical amplifiers (EDFAs) and amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) sources, and use common fusion splicing equipment. High erbium concentration results in fiber lengths that can be substantially reduced to meet desired gain.

Fiber Pigtails cut manufacturing costs.

Fiber pigtails allow solder to be reflowed multiple times for optimal fiber alignment, without solder pull strength or metallization degradation. Assemblies improve performance of edge emitting devices by increasing light coupling efficiency with wedge fiber lens and AR coatings. By using components on single-mode and polarization maintaining fibers, users can improve performance of pump laser...
