Sunrise adds OTDR and fiber inspection to test platform

The RxT-4000 Fiber Optics Toolkit (FOT) and the FiberScope inspection option has been added to Sunrise Telecom Inc.’s RxTTM Smart Productivity Test Platform.
 
The addition of the modules provides additional test and verification capabilities for operators deploying fiber optic infrastructures that enable new voice and data business services, next-generation mobile communications and cloud-based applications.
Tool Kit for Fiber Optic Termination
When paired with the rugged, battery-operated RxT Smart Productivity Test Platform, the RxT FOT module is an integral solution for installation, troubleshooting, and maintenance of Carrier Ethernet and SONET/SDH fiber optic cables. Combined with the RxT’s large portfolio of modules, which include solutions for 10GE, SONET/SDH and T1/E1, the RxT can now test from physical layer to services with one test set, resulting in shorter learning and training time for users.
 
The fiber optics solution will enable communications service providers deploying new broadband networks to inspect fiber connectors, analyze fiber for impairments and, if necessary, pinpoint the location and identity of the impairments.
 
The RxT FOT, which is available in multiple wavelength combinations for testing single-mode and multi-mode fibers, features fiber optics characterization which records event location and identity for the fiber under test.  The platform, which incorporates quad wavelength testing, and auto and manual mode configuration, offers a one-button ‘Auto Test Mode’ to simplify testing for even the most inexperienced user.
 
Controlled from a single hand-held set, the fully-connected, workflow-optimized, RxT Smart Productivity Test Platform enables field technicians to install, verify and troubleshoot 2G, 3G and 4G/LTE backhaul circuits and services.

Common Armored Fiber Optic Cables

  Armored fiber optic cables are often installed in a network for added mechanical protection, as they have extra reinforcing in the cable housing to prevent damage. Two types of armored fiber optic cables exist: interlocking and corrugated. Interlocking armor is an aluminum armor that is helically wrapped around the cable and found in indoor and indoor/outdoor cables. It offers ruggedness and superior crush resistance. Corrugated armor is a coated steel tape folded around the cable longitudinally. It is found in outdoor cables and offers extra mechanical and rodent protection.   The Structure of an Armored Fiber Optic Cable In basic armored fiber cable designs, the outer sleeve provides protection against wind, solvents, and abrasion. This outer sleeve is usually made of plastic such as polyethylene. The next layer between the sleeve and the inner jacket is an armoring layer of materials that are difficult to cut, chew, or bu

what the Differences Between FBT Splitter and PLC Splitter

  In FTTx and PON architectures, optical splitter plays an increasingly significant role to create a variety of point-to-multipoint fiber optic networks. But do you know what is a fiber optic splitter? In fact, a fiber optic splitter is a passive optical device that can split or separate an incident light beam into two or more light beams. Basically, there are two types of fiber splitter classified by their working principle: fused biconical taper splitter (FBT splitter) and planar lightwave circuit splitter (PLC splitter). You may have one question: what’s the difference between them and shall we use FBT or PLC splitter?   What Is FBT Splitter? FBT splitter is based on a traditional technology to weld several fiber together from side of the fiber. Fibers are aligned by heating for a specific location and length. Because the fused fibers are very fragile, they are protected by a glass tube made of epoxy and silica powder. And then a stainless steel tube covers the inner glass tu

Introduction of Optical Fiber Couplers and How Do They Work?

 What are optical fiber couplers? A fiber optic coupler can be defined as an optical component used with one or more input fibers and several output fibers in fiber optic systems. A coupler essentially puts two or more cores of fibers together to connect. The simple coupler is the fused fiber 2x2 coupler. Couplers are used as multiplexers that are resistant to certain wavelengths. A fiber output depends on the wavelength of light and the frequency of polarization. The fiber refractive index also plays a significant role in the performance. Let’s checkout how do optic couplers work to understand this better. How do fiber optic couplers work? Either fiber optic couplers separate optical signals into multiple paths or combine multiple signals in one direction. Optical signals are more complicated than electrical signals, making it more difficult to design optical couplers than their electrical copy. Unlike electrical currents, the optical signal consists of a stream of signal carriers, in
