Introduction
The family of connectors used on this standard are in accordance with EN 3645-001. The optical
termini, which are using the expanded beam technology, are specially adapted to the cavities of this
kind of connectors. It is particularly suitable for use in zones of severe environmental conditions on
board aircraft, applying EN 2282.
