Q

Connector/Splice Loss caused by: (E.C.E.F.C.B.N.)

A

E - End Gap (insertion loss/reflect acne)
C - Concentricity (Poor Alignment)
E - End Angle (one end not cut straight but on angle)
F - Finish/Dirt (Cladding and dirt)
C - Core Mismatch
B - Back Reflection (light kicks back causing Return Loss)
N - NA Mismatch (Numerical Aperture) 2 directional losses.

Q

OTDR:

Optical Time Domain Reflectometer

A

Tests integrity of Fiber cable, Splice loss, Measures length, Finds faults in Fiber, Creates (original) picture of Fiber cable uses as reference in case problem arises, best for long cables 250-800 ft, good for troubleshooting.

22
Q

Fiber Optic Light in MM Cable:

A

23
Q

Termination/Connectorization:

A

More common form of joining fibers, not as good as fiber splicing because of light loss and back reflection.
