Fiber Optic Power Meter & Light Source
A Power Meter & Light Source is a low cost way to certify optical fiber. These two pieces of test equipment are used to measure fiber optic light continuity, loss and lastly the actual strength of the optical signal.
Fiber Optic Signal Loss
In fiber optics when a beam of light which

What is Fusion Splicing?
This is a method of connecting two pieces of optical fiber. The ends of two pieces of fiber are mated in a precise way so that light can travel through the fiber. The joining of the two fiber ends must be done in such a manner that the light is not scattered as it passes through the location of the two spliced ends. This

What are the advantages of blowing or jetting fiber optic cable vs. traditional pulling?
Pulling and blowing are the two primary fiber installation methods. But each of these techniques can impact the longevity, performance, and return on investment (ROI) of a fiber optic network. If you take into account the fragility of glass or fused

We can all agree that it’s great having today’s high bandwidth optical networks to fulfill our needs within our daily lives.
While the capabilities that these networks provide cannot be matched, their higher sensitivity to back reflection and attenuation can be a constant concern. As the internet takes over more and more

Data Centers A Growing Business
Professionals in fiber optics and related fields want to know where data centers will be a growing business. They'd also like to understand why they're being built in the places they are. While there's no way to be sure of future trends, corporations keep certain factors in mind. They put more data centers

SOC’s Are an Excellent Way to Achieve Low-loss Connections
Prior to the introduction of fusion splicers, it was common for fiber optic installers to hand-polish connectors in order to minimize optical loss. For each connector, the process involved:• Stripping the field fiber and using epoxy to glue the fiber within a connector
