Overview
EN 3733-005:2007 is a CEN product standard for an aerospace series circular single-channel optical receptacle - a two-hole fixing connector designed for single-core fibre optic cable to EN 4532. The standard defines required characteristics for a self-locking ring coupled connector rated for continuous operation at 150 °C, including mechanical interfaces, materials and allowable optical performance when mated with compatible EN 4532 cables.
Key Topics
- Scope and compatibility
- Receptacle connector with two-hole fixing for EN 4532 single-core optical cable.
- Compatibility rules and allowable plug/receptacle combinations are referenced (see EN 3733-002).
- Mechanical dimensions and mounting
- Interface and panel cut-out dimensions are specified (figures referenced in standard); terminated mass ≤ 14.0 g.
- Front and rear mounting details, panel thickness limits and two-hole fixing arrangements.
- Materials and construction
- Connector shell: nickel‑copper alloy (specified in the standard).
- Ferrule incorporation for single-core fibre per EN 4532.
- Optical and environmental requirements
- Insertion loss limits: initial ≤ 0.6 dB; post‑conditioning ≤ 0.85 dB (measured at 810 nm, overfill launch).
- Discontinuity threshold and limits: discontinuity threshold set at 0.85 dB; discontinuities > 20 ns addressed in test criteria.
- Mechanical strength and cable retention
- Axial tensile load test (200 N), cable pulling, cyclic flexing, torsion and axial compression tests with specified loads and cycles.
- Qualification and tests
- Environmental tests: damp heat (cyclic), shock (300 g method A), vibration (random & high-level gunfire spectra per MIL‑STD‑810F modifications).
- Detailed test methods and qualification/approval requirements are contained in EN 3733-001 and EN 2591 series.
Applications
- Designed for aerospace and defence electrical/optical systems where a robust, high-temperature single-channel circular fibre connector is required.
- Typical users:
- Aerospace component designers and connector manufacturers.
- Systems integration and harness engineers specifying panel-mounted fibre receptacles.
- Qualification, test and procurement teams validating connector performance to aerospace standards.
- Use cases: avionics, heliborne systems, military platforms and any application needing a compact, high-temperature rated single-core optical receptacle with two-hole panel fixing.
