20 April, 2022

Description

This session is four hours and includes a technology, applications, and equipment review. The main source of signal loss in a fiber optic link is most commonly connector-related. Of the possible issues, over 85% of these problems are typically caused by dirty fiber optic end faces. With the ever-growing popularity of multi-fiber ribbon cables being deployed in FTTA applications, it goes without saying that fiber end-face inspection is critical to minimize having to revisit a site and to minimize potential issues in the future. Course Topics Basic review of what end face inspection entails and the current standardsDiscussion about the impact of dirty end faces and the IEC 61300-3-35 standard Proper end-face inspection techniques of multi-fiber connectors such as OptiTip, HMFOC, and othersVarious tips available, bulkhead adapter for both patch cords and ports (using an adapter)Explanation of the various inspection tools and cleaning options availableP5000i, FC Probe, Sidewinder – Click cleaners, solvents, cletop, etc. Best practices for inspecting and cleaning in various environmentsWet to dry cleaningSchedule Fiber BasicsFiber typesConnector types – focus on OptiTip Importance of end face inspection Pass/Fail criteria – IEC 61300-3-35Inspection tools Cleaning tools Proper cleaning practices Generating inspection reports Hands-on training Q&A More Info Sessions will be scheduled in San Diego, Dallas, and Atlanta starting in April of 2022.
