DIAMOND
Fiber Optic Components
In order to ensure the highest technical performance and to provide an
optimum solution for high packing density, DIAMOND has developed the
new Diamond Micro Interface (DMI) connection system.
Thanks to its minimum space requirement, this system is an ideal solu-
tion for Printed Circuit Board (PCB) applications as well as a high quality
interface between active and passive components of fiber optic installa-
tions.
DMI connectors are based on standard ø2.5 mm ferrules and are designed
to operate with multimode and single mode fibers, 0° PC as well as 8°
APC polished. Furthermore the DMI is also available as PM (Polarization
Maintaining) interface.
The new DMI system shows the following features and benefits:
•
•
•
•
Minimum space requirement thanks to its high packing density (foot
print of 4.5 x 21 mm).
Consistent high performance as standard PC and APC as well as PM
version.
Easy installation thanks to standard clip-on system.
Standard active core aligned DIAMOND ø2.5 mm ferrule.
