A multiple fiber connector with an alignment hole for a multiple extrusion unit is proposed. An average connector loss of 0.27 dB is achieved by employing index matching oil. Furthermore, the cause of the loss is evaluated, and it is shown that the calculated losses agree with the experimental values.
A new type of multiple connector for multiple extrusion fiber unit is proposed. This connector has a reciprocal end structure and a simple clamping device such as thermo-shrinkable tube. Average splice loss of 0.31 dB with the maximum loss of 0.52 dB is attained with index maching oil.
