Abstract: | ![]() A low-loss demountable connector with a precision-made ceramic capillary is presented for 1.3 ?m single-mode fibres. The field-assembly connector can be assembled without adjusting fibre core alignment to the centre of a plug. By using a plastic thin film, an average connection loss of below 0.3 dB is obtained. |
