The Notes When Using OTDR
Nov 26 , 2020
1. Simple judgment of fiber quality: Under normal circumstances, the slope of the main body of the light curve (single disk or several optical cables) tested by OTDR is basically the same. If the slope of a certain section is large, it indicates that the attenuation of this section is large; if the main body of the curve is of irregular shape, the slope fluctuation is large. Bending or arcing indi...

What is the FTTx?
Dec 16 , 2020
FTTx is the abbreviation of “Fiber to the X”, which means “fiber to x”, which is a general term for various fiber-optic communication networks, where X represents the destination of the fiber-optic line. The FTTx network applications in GPON access have the following in common: The data, voice, and video signals of terminal users are sent to ONUs, where the signals are converted into Ethernet pack...

The simple failure analysis and elimination of fusion splicer
Dec 23 , 2020
1. During the splicing process, the fusion splicer displays "fiber not found or the end face of the fiber is untidy". This is mainly caused by the surface of the optical system being contaminated. The protective glass (located under the electrode) should be cleaned with absolute alcohol, and the lens on the fiber cover should be cleaned at the same time. Wait until the alcohol is dry before procee...

What's fiber optic pigtail?
Jan 06 , 2021
A fiber pigtail is a single, short, usually tight-buffered fiber optic cable with a factory-installed connector on one end, and un-terminated fiber on the other end, making the maintenance more conveniently. Fiber optic pigtails are used to terminated fiber optic cables via fusion splicing or mechanical splicing as shown in the picture below. The end of the pigtail is stripped and fusion spli...

What are the main functional differences between OTDR and optical power meters?
Jan 13 , 2021
Anyone who does optical cable construction will often come into contact with optical power meter and OTDR (optical time domain reflectometer). Multi-users do not understand why it is necessary to use an optical power meter to test the optical loss after testing the OTDR. Doesn't OTDR have the function of testing fiber loss? And there are some differences in the main functions of the two devices? O...

Precautions for using VFL
Feb 03 , 2021
Visual Fault Locator are also called VFL, pen-type red light sources, visible light detector, optical fiber fault detectors, optical fiber fault locators, etc. Most of them are used to detect fiber breakpoints. According to their shortest detection distance, they are divided into: 5Km, 10Km, 15Km, 20Km, 25Km, 30Km, 35Km, 40Km, etc. Driven by a constant current source, a stable red light is emitted...

The Introduce of Fiber Optic Microscope
Mar 10 , 2021
Fiber optic microscopes are used to inspect connectors to check the quality of the termination procedure and diagnose problems. A well made connector will have a clean, smooth, polished and scratch free finish. There is not be any signs ofcracks, chips or fiber not even with the ferrule front. The magnification for viewing connectors can be 30 to 400 power. Seikofire sells S620mini video optical f...

The correct use of fiber stripper
Mar 17 , 2021
Professional tools should be used when stripping the coating layer of the optical fiber. The most typical tool is the Fiber Stripper; it can thin the plastic outer layer outside the pigtail, and it can also strip the coating layer of the optical fiber. Pay attention to: 1. When peeling off the coating layer of the optical fiber, there should be no impurities in the small holes of the fiber strippe...

Daily maintenance of fusion splicer
Apr 09 , 2021
In the fusion state, the optical fiber advancement stops and the machine does not perform fusion operation. The reason is that the V-groove is dirty and must be cleaned. After closing the windproof cover, the optical fiber will not push forward. Reason: 1. The bare optical fiber is placed too far from the electrode or beyond the electrode, please replay the optical fiber. 2. The objective lens has...
