Glenairs unique alignment techniques maximize optical performance and provide reliable,
repeatable interconnection of optical bers. Ferrule design, critical to the performance of
the termini, has traditionally relied on a machined stainless steel ferrule incorporating a
precision micro drilled hole. Glenairs unique precision ceramic ferrules, with concentricity
and diametric tolerances controlled within a micron (.00004 of an inch) meet the needs of
high bandwidth and low allowable insertion loss applications. In fact, Glenairs ferrules are
approximately 10 times more accurate than alternative designs, and have reduced insertion
loss values from 1.5dB to less than .5dB (typical loss for Glenair termini is .3 dB).
