Kyocera's ceramic machining technologies create high-precision connector components, such as zirconia ceramic ferrules and sleeves, for fiber-optic communications.
Kyocera's extrusion and machining processes create ceramic ferrules with excellent concentricity at both ends, and highly precise inner and outer diameters. Ferrules are used for applications including optical connectors, attenuators and fiber stubs.
Ceramic sleeves are used for optical adapters and receptacles.
