Why should you use BS EN 3733-108 - Cable support boots?
Optical connectors are suitable for use in aerospace onboard applications. An optic module connects optic cables to an electronic device. An optic module is a component that is used to connect an optic cable to an electronic device. The guidelines provided under BS EN 3733-108 assist the design engineer with the use of the optical module to have greater flexibility while designing and integrating new products with components.
The guidelines in BS EN 3733-108 create a standardized approach for manufacturers of electrical connectors for supplying their electronic connectors to the aerospace industry. With compliance and obedience to BS EN 3733-108, manufacturers can demonstrate the reliability of the products and build trust in their use throughout the aerospace supply chain.
