MIL-PRF-29504/5D
(3)
Multiple fiber sizes, same ferrule hole diameter. Manufacturers who qualify under this
specification sheet for termini with the 50/125 micron fiber size are qualified under this
specification sheet for the 62.5/125 micron fiber size. Qualification inspection shall be
performed on termini with a ferrule hole diameter of 126 +1, -0 microns.
(4)
Sizes larger than 100/140 fiber. Manufacturers who qualify under this specification sheet
for the termini with the multimode, 100/140 micron fiber size or less are qualified under
this specification sheet for the termini with larger fiber sizes.
(5)
Metal ferrule sizes. Manufacturers who qualify under this specification sheet for the
termini single mode and for multimode fiber sizes with ceramic ferrules and perform the
full qualification inspection for the 100/140/172 fiber size using a 175 +3, -0 ferrule hole
diameter and the size and insertion loss inspections for the 62.5/125/155 fiber size using
the 157 +3, -0 ferrule hole diameter are qualified under this specification sheet for the
other ferrule hole diameters with multimode fiber.
(6)
Constraint for qualification by similarity cases listed above. These qualification by
similarity cases are valid if the only difference between the qualified termini and the larger
size termini being offered is a change in the terminus ferrule hole diameter and TICC
markings.
c.
Qualification of termini for different cable strain relief capture mechanisms.
(1)
Qualification inspection shall be performed on termini for the smallest fiber size and with
the largest hole diameter being offered.
(2)
Manufacturers who qualify under this specification sheet for termini with one style of
cable strain relief capture mechanism and pass the insertion loss, cable pullout, thermal
shock, temperature life and the insertion and removal force verification are qualified
under this specification sheet for a different cable strain relief capture mechanism.
Insertion and removal force verification of the termini to and from the connector shall be
performed, with the termini on the ends of single fiber cable, to verify that strain relief is
compatible with tools in table II.
(3)
Constraint for qualification by similarity case listed above. This qualification by similarity
case is valid if the only difference between the qualified termini and the termini
undergoing qualification is a different cable strain relief capture mechanism and TICC
markings.
e. Qualification of termini for change in design and/or material.
(1) Perform complete re-qualification.
Cleaning prior to packaging. Termini shall be cleaned prior to packaging/shipment internally (for
ensuring proper adherence of epoxy to terminus barrel (body) and ferrule and externally (for
minimizing contamination).
