With the technological evolution occurring in data centers, test requirements dramatically changed for the fiber networks that connect mission-critical servers, networking and storage devices. Selecting the proper OTDR to test your network not only strengthens its reliability, but also improves how quickly and efficiently the job is done, as well as documenting the quality of […]
The Telecommunications Industry Association’s TR-42 Engineering Committee and its subcommittees met the week of January 25, and one of the more significant results of the meeting was that the Category 8 standard—long in development within the TR-42.7 subcommittee focused on copper cabling systems—is just one step away from approval and publication. The standard is in […]
A specific lengths pre-assembled MTP/MPO Trunk cable with 12 or 24 fibers is delivered to data center for easy installation, because an It is impossible to manually to assemble MPO/MTP plug connector with 12 or 24 fibers on site during installation. The advantages of MPO/MTP Trunk cable with the following advantages • Higher Quality Higher quality […]
HOLIDAY NOTICE Our offices will be closed on Feb. 2nd, 2016, in observance of Chinese Spring Festival. We will be reopen on Feb. 15th 2016. We apologize for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding. SHANGHAI TARLUZ TELECOM TECH. CO., LTD.
LC and MPO Fiber Optic connectors were defined for data center applications in accordance with ISO/IEC 24764, EN 50173-5 and TIA-942 standards for fiber optic cabling systems. MPO Connector (IEC 61754-7) MPO (multipath push-on) is based on a plastic ferrule that provides the ability to house up to 24 fibers in a single connector. Connectors […]
An OTDR sends short pulses of light into a fiber. Light scattering occurs in the fiber due to discontinuities such as connectors, splices, bends, and faults. The OTDR then detects and analyzes the backscattered signals. The signal strength is measured for specific intervals of time and is used to characterize events. The OTDR calculates distances […]
Problem Cause Solution The application displays a message indicating that a “Non-resolved fiber end” event has been found. The fiber under test is too long. Ensure that the fiber under test is shorter than the maximum length the OTDR can measure. The application displays message indicating that a “live fiber error” occurred and the fiber […]
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 […]
