Backplane connector

Sept. 1, 1995

Backplane connector

The Lightplane connector permits blind mating of singlemode or multimode optical fibers from a daughtercard to a system backplane or motherboard. The connector eliminates the need for separate optical jumpers from the daughtercards to the front or back of the cabinet. It contains eight fiber positions and provides 0.5-dB typical insertion loss and 40-dB return loss.
