Finally, gently tighten the fiber grub
screw to reduce the free play of the
ferrule in the receptacle.
The free play in between the connector ferrule and receptacle is only a few microns, but necessary for
inserting the ferrule without force.
The tightened grub screw and the right-hand orientation rule for the connector, ensure a high reproducibility
in mode field position and angle, which is especially important for attaching and reattaching polarization-
maintaining fibers reproducibly.
