In fiber optic network, whether installing new cable, or troubleshooting existing cable, cable testing always plays an important role in the process. Optical power meter which is widely used for power measurement and loss testing is well known to us. Today, we are going to talk about this...

Optical fiber measurement can be divided into three steps: using OTDR testers for parameter setting, data acquisition and analysis. Measuring parameters include artificial Settings.

(1) the wavelength selection (λ):
Because of different wavelengths corresponding to different features...

Optical fibers require end-surface treatment for proper light propagation and that includes polishing their ends. Polishing is essential for almost all glass-based fibers with cladding diameters larger than 200 microns. Furthermore, all fiber connectors require polishing. The process of fiber optic...

During fiber optic network installation, maintenance or restoration, it is also often necessary to identify a specific fiber without disrupting live service. This battery powered instrument looks like a long handheld bar is called fiber optic identifier or live fiber identifier.

What is OTDR?
OTDR, short for Optical Time Domain Reflectometer, is used for testing the integrity of fiber optic cables. The basic functions of OTDR is to verify splice loss, measure length and find faults. In addition, OTDR is commonly used to create a “picture” of fiber optic cable when...

Optical power meter (OPM) is a device used to measure the absolute optical power or the relative length of optical fiber optical power loss in fiber optic systems, similar to the multimeter of electronics. By measuring the optical network transmitter or absolute power, a power meter will be able to...

Overview
Visual fault locator, also called VFL for short, is an essential tool that quickly and easily locates problem areas in fiber cables. It is regarded as a part of OTDR and it is cheap. By pinpointing the exact location of the fiber damage, such as breakpoint, bending or cracking,...

FTTH (fiber to the home) networks are installed in many areas covering indoor section, outdoor section, as well as the transition in between. To fulfill the cabling requirements from different areas, different types of fiber optic cables are well developed. Drop cableas an important part of FTTH...
