THE F-3000™ SIMPLEX The F-3000™ is a small form factor SFF fiber optic connector based onto 1.25 mm ferrule style. It has been recently standardized as LF3 connector, thus clarifying and ensuring the mechanical compatibility of the F-3000™ connector with the LC adapter. This opens access to a broad field of existing applications, and will be increased with new customer specific solutions. STANDARDS ► IEC 61 754-28 "Fiber optic interconnecting devices and passive components - Type LF3 connector family" EN 50377-16-1 Product specification: Part 16-1: Type LF3 APC simplex terminated on IEC 60793-2-50...

THE F-3000™ DUPLEX The F-3000™ DUPLEX combines the familiarity of the SFF design and the optical performances of the F-3000™ simplex connector. It is based on components of the F-3000™ simplex version and is joined by a simple clip-bridge and a widened thumb-latch. The F-3000™ DUPLEX is the ideal solution for applications such as Fiber-to-the X (FTTX), including FTTC, FTTH, FTTD. AVAILABLE AS  Standard terminated connector  Connector set (to be terminated with Diamond special equipment) F-3000™ Standard Duplex Adapter and connector F-3000™ Junior Duplex Adapter and F-3000™ LIFT connector COLOR...

THE F-3000™ BACKPLANE The F-3000™ BACKPLANE combines the advantages of the F-3000™ SYSTEM with an optimal guiding mechanism for secure backplane connection. When mated, the PCB connector is retained in the mating adapter eliminating all stress on the PC Board. It uses the standard components of the F-3000™ single fiber version which are joined by a simple clip-bridge that includes radial, angular and longitudinal compensation. Clip bridges are available for 2 and 4 connectors. The F-3000™ BACKPLANE is available in multimode, single mode, 0° (PC) and 8° angle polished (APC) versions. The F-3000™...

THE F-3000™ r AND rs Current installation techniques for Fiber Optics, either indoor or outdoor, tend to reduce installation times and expenses while keeping high quality standards. Diamond's ferrule assembly for F-3000™ connectors is a compact pre-connectorized system which can be used in substitution to a standard Break-out cable within ducts of very small size or to be blown into microducts, offering an easy and reliable solution to perform FTTx installations. After installation, the ferrule assembly can easily and rapidly be con-nectorized, avoiding time-consuming and expensive field termination...

THE F-3000™ POWER SOLUTION (PS) Diamond F-3000™ PS connector is designed for high power applications up to 3 Watts optical power for SM fibers. This has been developed to support the continuous rise of higher bitrates and longer transmission distances within DWDM technology. Diamond PS connectors are based on contacted expanded beam technology; where a section of graded index fiber is spliced as a collimating lens, which enlarges the beam diameter and reduces power density at the connector interface. Using Diamond Active Core Alignment (ACA) technology, we can achieve unrivaled low IL performances....

THE F-3000™ FUSION The F-3000™ FUSION allows you to quickly and easily make field terminations with the performance you expect from Diamond-quality F-3000™ connectors. The key to this system is DIAMOND's advanced "crocodile alberino" fusion field ferrule assembly. The ferrule assembly consists of a factory-terminated fiber endface, fiber stub, and integrated splice protection. The fiber endface is core-centered via Diamond's well-known Active Core Alignment process and factory-polished to the company's precise specifications. The F-3000™ FUSION is then field terminated via a low loss fusion splice...
