What is Fiber Optic Adapters Couplers?

Fiber optic adapters (also called couplers) are designed to connect two fiber optic cables together. They come in versions to connect single fibers together (simplex), two fibers together (duplex), or sometimes four fibers together (quad). Adapters are designed for multimode or singlemode cables. The singlemode adapters offer more precise alignment of the tips of the…

Optical Performance Of a Fiber Patch Cord

☞Insertion Loss & Back Reflection ●To improve cable performance, Insertion loss and back reflection must be minimized. ●To minimize insertion loss, the proper selection of materials is vital. When pick out the material of the core, we use zirconia ceramic ferrule to reach the optimum insertion loss and return loss. Also, safe termination practices are…

OS1 Vs OS2 Fiber

In terms of the cable construction, OS1 is tight buffered while OS2 is loose tube. This determines they’ll be applied in different environment. OS1 single mode fiber is usually deployed in indoor applications such as schools, telecom exchanges and data center while OS2 single mode fiber is more appropriate for outdoor and universal loose tube…

What is Fiber optic Attenuator?

Fiber optic Attenuator or An optical attenuator, or fiber optic attenuator, is a device used to reduce the power level of an optical signal, either in free space or in an optical fiber. The basic types of optical attenuators are fixed, step-wise variable, and continuously variable. Fiber optic attenuators are devices which reduce (attenuate) the…

What Is Fiber Patch Cord?

Fiber Patch Cord or Fiber Optic Patch Cable or Fiber Optic jumper cables is a fiber-optic cable capped at either end with connectors that allow it to be rapidly and conveniently connected to CATV, an optical switch or other telecommunication equipment. Its thick layer of protection is used to connect the optical transmitter, receiver, and…

What is PLC splitter?

Fiber optic splitters, also referred to as optical splitter, or beam splitter, is an integrated wave guide optical power distribution device that can split an incident light beam into two or more light beams, and vice versa, containing multiple input and output ends. Optical splitter has played an important role in passive optical networks (like…

Fiber Optic Connector Guides

What are fiber & networking connectors?Fiber optic connectors are unique. Fiber cables transmit pulses of light instead of electrical signals, so the terminations must be much more precise. Instead of merely allowing pins to make metal-to-metal contact, fiber optic connectors must align microscopic glass fibers perfectly in order to allow for communication. While there are…

What is the difference between FWDM and CWDM?

The difference between FWDM and CWDM is that FWDM can multiplex or de-multiplex two or more optical signals of different wavelengths in a single wide wavelength range channel, as well as increasing signal transmission speed and communication capacity. FWDM device is widely used in telecommunications, radio and television, enterprise network, campus network and other fields…
