4. FAQ
Q1: Why does this 8-channel fiber array use a 12-fiber MTP/APC connector?
The assembly uses a standard 12-fiber MTP/APC female connector, while only the middle eight positions are populated for the 8-channel fiber array. The active positions are channels 3 through 10, leaving the two outer channels on each side unused.
Q2: What is the advantage of the lidless fiber array design?
A lidless fiber array leaves the optical coupling surface directly accessible, which can simplify alignment and integration in applications such as optical modules, photonic devices, and fiber-to-chip coupling assemblies.
