Overview

SIST EN 3733-009:2009 is a European standard developed by CEN that specifies requirements for a receptacle sub-assembly used in aerospace-grade optical connectors. These connectors are circular, single-channel, and use a self-locking ring coupling mechanism. The receptacle sub-assembly is designed for single core fibre optic cables compliant with EN 4532 (200 µm/280 µm fibre) and is rated for continuous operation at temperatures up to 150 °C. This standard forms part 009 of the aerospace series optical connector standards and ensures interoperability, reliability, and performance within harsh aerospace environments.

Key Topics

• Scope and Application
  Defines characteristics and dimensional requirements for the receptacle sub-assembly tailored to aerospace optical cables as per EN 4532. Applicable primarily for single-channel fibre optic connectors with high-temperature tolerance.

• Design and Materials
  The receptacle sub-assembly features zirconia ceramic and nickel-copper alloy components, providing durability, precise optical alignment, and resistance to extreme aerospace conditions.

• Dimensional and Mechanical Requirements
  Precise mechanical specifications ensure compatibility and interchangeability across aerospace optical systems. The assembly maintains a lightweight design, with a maximum mass of 4.0 grams.

• Standards Integration
  Interfaces and testing criteria reference EN 3733-001 (Technical Specification for the connector interface, tests, and qualification) and EN 3733-002 (List of product standards and codification).

• Qualification and Testing
  Assemblies incorporating this sub-assembly must meet qualification requirements outlined in EN 3733-001, ensuring performance consistency and adherence to aerospace safety protocols.

Applications

• Aerospace Optical Communication Systems
  Used in aircraft and spacecraft to provide reliable single-channel fibre optic connections that resist extreme temperatures up to 150 °C.

• Harsh Environment Connectivity
  Suitable for aerospace environments requiring rugged, lightweight optical connectors capable of maintaining signal integrity during mechanical vibration, temperature fluctuations, and other operational challenges.

• Maintenance and Spare Parts
  The sub-assembly is also available as a spare part for existing aerospace connectors, facilitating repair and lifecycle extension for optical communication hardware.
