How to distinguish SM and MM fiber?
May 07 , 2021
According to the transmission mode of light in the fiber, it can be divided into: single-mode fiber and multi-mode fiber. The core diameter of the multimode fiber is 50-62.5μm, the outer diameter of the cladding is 125μm, the core diameter of the single-mode fiber is 8.3μm, and the outer diameter of the cladding is 125μm. The working wavelength of the optical fiber has short wavelength 0.85μm, lon...

Why we need OCID?
Apr 23 , 2021
As demand for optical fiber increases day by day,the numbers of fibers in a single optical cable can be as many as 2096 individual fibers.As more fiber cables are buried underground,it becomes extremely dificult for the telecom engineers and technicians to manage the cables because cables may take different pathways, or be labeled incorrectly. As vast large number of optical cable being deployed b...

Optical fiber will be the foundation of 5G network
Apr 01 , 2021
With the continuous changes in 5G wireless standards, what measures can network operators take to lay the foundation for 5G transmission networks? The good news is that at least the path of 5G at the physical layer is clear: optical fiber will be the foundation of 5G networks, and centralized RAN (C-RAN) will become the 5G network architecture. C-RAN was introduced through 4G (commercial de...

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...

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...

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...

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 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...
