If your fiber optic cable is not properly aligned and/or connected, you will notice heavy loss and reflection. Properly cleaning and connecting optical fibers to OTDR is important, please follow the following steps to clean the fibers and connecting it to OTDR. To connect the fiber optic cable to the port: 1. Inspect the fiber […]
AFL has introduced the Fujikura 22S active cladding alignment fusion splicer. With this model’s moveable v-grooves, splicer errors due to dust and other contaminants are virtually eliminated, says the company. Removable sheath clamps allow the use of fiber holders, and the unit’s large monitor provides a crystal clear image, even in bright sunlight. “Fujikura continues […]
On a transmission network, one cause of insertion loss on a fiber link is macro bending. This is commonly caused by tight installation or handling. As Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) networks lead to a significant increase of fiber installation in the last mile, the space constraints become increasingly stringent. This is driving the need for distributions hubs […]
ITU-T G.651 Multimode fiber standard • In enterprise network, multimode fiber is becoming more In enterprise network, multimode fiber is becoming more popular in the horizontal cabling in the Fiber-to-the-Zone (FTTZ) architecture • Bandwidth is shifting from 1Gbps to 10Gbps, therefore shrinking the power loss budget ITU-T G.652 Standard Singlemode fiber. 4 different categories (A, […]
Fujikura fusion splicer expand product line with the Fujikura 62S, an active core alignment splicer featuring exceptional splice loss performance and minimized splice time. With a conventional flip-open wind protector and non-motorized tube heater, the complexity of this splicer is reduced, without compromising total cycle time, says the company. Additionally, the number of steps to […]
