EXFO Power Meter Trouble Shooting
PPM-350C Troubleshooting The PPM-350C PON Power Meter was designed for two main purposes: Suit FTTP testing needs and to be easy to use for people who are not necessarily familiar with fiber optics in FTTx. Be used as a standard optical power meter (OPM operation mode). Solving Common Problems Problem Possible Cause Solution One of […]
JDSU Light Source Maintenance
Before you start to maintenance Light Source, read the following words thoroughly: Maintenance or cleaning of the device when it is connected up or operating may damage the device or injure you. Make sure that the device is switched off and disconnected from all power sources and optical radiation sources before maintenance or cleaning. The […]

EXFO Power Meter Calibration
Power Meter Calibration Introduction When it comes to calibration, it is not enough to state that an instrument complies with published specifications; it is necessary to be ready to prove it and to have a state-of-the-art system in place to monitor and preserve the quality of all calibrations. In 1998, EXFO decided to adopt the […]
Maintenance of FSM-11S SpliceMate Splicing Quality
Maintenance of Splicing Quality 1. Cleaning and Checking before Splicing Critical cleaning points and maintenance checks are described below . 1-1. Arc Power Calibration Refer to [Arc Calibration] (Page 42). 1-2. Cleaning V -grooves If contaminants are present in the V -grooves, proper clamping may not occur, resulting in higher splice loss. The V -grooves […]
Advantages Of Fiber Optics
Optical Fiber Advantage in telecommunication 1. Immunity to Electromagnetic Interference Although fiber optics can solve data communications problems, they are not needed everywhere. Most computer data goes over ordinary wires. Most data is sent over short distances at low speed. In ordinary environments, it is not practical to use fiber optics to transmit data between […]

Tecnologías utilizadas en FTTx
FTTx Technology New standards such as those established by ITU-T, the IEC and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (IEEE), have greatly increased standardization of design, survivability and safety of PONs. It offers the opportunity to economies scale and lower costs, no conceivable above. Tables 1 and 2 describe the main parameters that define […]
FTTx Introducción
Introducción a FTTx La fibra óptica monomodo, con su ancho de banda prácticamente ilimitado, es ahora el medio de transporte preferido en redes de transporte largo y metropolitanas. La utilización de cable de fibra óptica (en lugar de cable de cobre) reduce significativamente los costes del equipo y de mantenimiento, a la vez que aumenta […]
