SC Connector Introduction – Fiber Connector Introduction

The SC connector (short for Subscriber Connector, square connector or Standard Connector) mianly used in Datacom and telecom; GPON; EPON; GBIC, It features a 2.5mm Zirconia Ceramic ferrule and a push/pull coupling mechanism for a fast and reliable connection. The SC connectors are available for single mode UPC with blue boots, for APC with green […]

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 […]

La importancia de la Geometría en los Conectores de Fibra Óptica

El éxito de la conectividad en fibra óptica en su red depende en gran medida de la calidad del contacto físico de las fibras que están siendo conectadas. Este contacto físico es el resultado de la geometría de las caras terminales de los conectores. Si estas no son rigurosamente controladas, no se asegura su confiabilidad […]

Comparison Between HFC and Fiber-to-the-Home

HFC and FTTH networks differ in that HFC extends fiber to a node within a mile of the home or business, while FTTH extends fiber all the way to the home or business—typically terminating the fiber at a customer premises device, which then provides service to devices in the home over copper lines, coaxial cable, […]

Network Equipment Selection – Considerations

In the early days of GPON service providers cared primarily about getting the service to work, and the easiest way to ensure this was to purchase an end-to-end GPON solution from a single vendor, who was responsible to make it work. Providers that used multiple vendors in their network divided their service area into different […]

Introduction to HFC Hybrid Fiber Coaxial Architecture

Cable technology is commonly called “hybrid fiber coaxial” or HFC. This is because most cable systems consist of fiber connections from the operator’s headend or hub facility (the cable counterpart of the telephone central office) to an optical “node” near the customer premises, and thereafter comprise coaxial cable to the premises. Cable operators have extended […]
