The LightCONEX® active blind mate optical interconnect is a revolutionary solution for VPX systems that includes a fixed Plug-in Module Connector and a floating backplane connector compatible with proposed VITA 66.5 standard. The low-profile plug-in module connector is screwed on the board edge through an interposer, saving board space and eliminating fiber cable handling.


LightCONEX® active blind mate optical interconnect


Specifications and Features:

Optical interconnect: Mechanical Transfer (MT) ferrule with linear array of 12 parallel multimode fibers

Secure connection: Spring within the backplane optical cable provides the mating force between plug-in module and backplane MTs.

Standards: Designed following VITA 66.5 standard (forthcoming).

Maintenance: Supports two-level maintenance.

Blind mate: Eliminates fiber handling and frees up space on host board.

Robustness: Tested for vibration and shock over industrial temperature range, exposure to humidity, salt fog, sand and dust, mate/un-mate cycles, following military specs.
