mance in harsh environments.
Ball lens expands cross-sec-
tional area of light over 200
times for multimode and over
2000 times for singlemode
Rugged hermaphroditic con-
struction (i.e., same insert
mates to each other)
Physically non-contacting mat-
ing conditions; no wear,
installed fiber ferrule protect-
ed by ball lens
PRO BEAM Mini Connector
field deployable interconnects
Insert/holder blocks designed
for Mini-Expanded Beam
Common insert for 1- through
4-channels
Unique Modular Design, for
use with multimode and sin-
glemode fiber.
Cable assembly and termina-
tion services
Mini-Expanded Beam insert for
multi-channel small form fac-
tor – the smallest expanded
beam multi-channel insert in
the industry a Tyco Electronics
exclusive.
Dimensions are in millimeters
and inches unless otherwise
specified. Values in brackets

General Purpose Rectangular (GPR) Connectors
Insert Assemblies for High Speed Applications
Fiber Optic interconnect/
cable system using
Expanded Beam technolo-
gy, which physically
expands and collimates the
transmission signal into an
optical beam over 14 times
its original diameter (the
cross sectional area of the
light beam increases over
200 times for multimode
optical signals). For single-
mode signals, the collimated
beam is over 45 times its
original diameter (the cross-

sectional area of the light
beam increases over 2,000
times). It is then refocused
back down onto the core of
the receiving fiber. This
approach provides ease of
alignment and low sensitivity
to thermal changes and con-
tamination. High strength,
precision connector hous-
ings enhance a durable con-
nection, optimizing low loss
and repeatable perfor-
mance.
