Overview
IEC 61754 defines the standard interface dimensions for type MPO family of connectors with one row of fibres. The parent connector for type MPO connector family is a multiway plug characterized by a rectangular ferrule normally 6,4 mm×2,5 mm which utilizes two pins of 0,7 mm diameter as its alignment. The variant in this standard provides a joint of 2 to 12 fibres by arraying them between two pin-positioning holes in a one- layer, (one-row) arrangement. The connector includes a push-pull coupling mechanism and a ferrule spring loaded in the direction of optical axis. The connector has a single male key which may be used to orient and limit the relative position between the connector and the component to which it is mated. This standard is directed at manufacturers, users and test laboratories. The responsible committee is Subcommittee DKE/UK 412.7 "LWL-Verbindungstechnik und passive optische Komponenten" ("Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive optical components") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
