Abstract :
A 6.3 Mb/s transmission experiment was conducted using a new type of LED/PIN-PD array package which includes demountable connections with a fibre ribbon. An allowable loss of about 20 dB for each fibre link was verified and coupling efficiency variation due to repeated matings was only 0.1 dB. It was also confirmed that the effect of crosstalk between adjacent channels was negligible.
