Penetrable protective cap for photonic connectors

A photonic connector includes a first ferrule having a first plurality of optical fibers. A membrane cover is attached to the first ferrule and covers the ends of the first plurality of optical fibers. Once the first ferrule is mated with a second ferrule having a second plurality of optical fibers, the membrane cover is penetrated by the first plurality of optical fibers, the second plurality of optical fibers, or both. 一种光子连接器包括具有第一多条光纤的第一套箍。膜盖附接到第一套箍并覆盖第一多条光纤的端部。一旦第一套箍与具有第二多条光纤的第二套箍配合，膜盖就被第一多条光纤、第二多条光纤或两者穿透。
