Solid sleeves are mainly used
for connecting optical modules and have replaced fiber stubs
as connection components for PD Modules in order to provide
a stable connection at a low cost.
We also supply different configurations of solid sleeves
for Ferrule Outer Diameters of φ2.5mm and φ1.25 mm. There
are several sleeve configurations to choose from. One type
consists of a tapered process located on the inside ends of
the sleeves in order for entry ease when inserting the ferrules
of the connectors.
We also supply the anchor processed sleeves for plastic insert
molding. We can also accommodate to order the plastic insert
molding process itself. In order to function as precision
sleeves, the technique is required to inspect the ID within
submicron tolerances using pin gauges. We also manufacture
and sell our own pin gauges as well.
Recently, the manufacture and sales of solid sleeves is increasing
for the purpose of strengthening the tolerance of the side
load (wiggle issue) present within optical modules. Therefore,
solid sleeves have now also been expanded in applications
not only for PD Modules but also for LD Modules.
