Abstract

See full text

An optical lens connector includes alignment features for passive connection alignment. The alignment features are C-shaped and have generally planar surfaces to interface with a mating connector. The alignment features passively align an optical fiber with an optical lens in the optical lens connector, by fitting adjacent to planar surfaces of the mating connector. When interfaced together, the alignment features restrict lateral and vertical motion of the connectors with respect to each other, which helps keep the optical lens aligned with the optical fiber.
