Evolution of MPO Connectors

The MPO was created to provide highly reliable connections in high density fiber applications, primarily in interoffice data network environments. The connector was revolutionary and performed as advertised in its early years, and helped advance optical connectorization in subsequent decades. The data communications industry uses MPO connectors to connect fiber backbone in premises applications, mainframe […]

OM4 fiber optic cabling

What is OM4 ? Based on The New TIA/EIA Standard, OM4 is a laser-optimized, high bandwidth 50µm multimode fiber. In August of 2009, TIA/EIA approved and released 492AAAD, which defines the performance criteria for this grade of optical fiber. While they developed the original “OM” designations, IEC has not yet released an approved equivalent standard […]

OTN Technology Overview

The following technologies have a common goal of being able to route packet technologies (Ethernet) across a network in a deterministic way while providing a stable system with management and fault-finding abilities. Technologies such as SDH/SONET, which is connection-oriented, are very deterministic in routing and quality but they are also very inflexible with regards to […]

Why Do I Need an OTDR?

An optical time-domain reflectometer (OTDR) is an optoelectronic instrument used to characterize an optical fiber. An OTDR is the optical equivalent of an electronic time domain reflectometer. It injects a series of optical pulses into the fiber under test and extracts, from the same end of the fiber, light that is scattered (Rayleigh backscatter) or […]
