As fiber links support higher-speed network bandwidths with increasingly stringent requirements, it’s becoming more important to ensure your backbone links meet tightening loss standards. The need for higher data transmission capacity continues to increase as network applications grow and expand. These higher transmission speeds demand cabling that delivers increased bandwidth support. This test and troubleshooting […]

Fiber Optic Cable Network Field Testing Overview
In order to test the performance of a Fibre system several key measurements need to be carried out, these can include some or all of the following: l End-to-end optical link loss l Rate of attenuation per unit length l Attenuation contribution of splices, connectors and couplers l Length of the fibre or distance to […]
