What is Fiber Connector?

March 27, 2012

Fiber Connector (Optical Connector) mate or connect with optical devices, modules, and fibers. It is one of the most essential components for optical communication. Fiber connector is also the key part used in fiber patch cord and fiber Pigtail.

What is Fiber Patch Cord?

March 27, 2012

Fiber Patch Cord (Fiber Patch Cable or Fiber jumper) is an fiber cable that has fiber connectors installed on one or both ends. General use of these cable assemblies includes the interconnection of fiber cable systems and optics-to-electronic equipment.

What is Fiber Optic Attenuator?

March 27, 2012

Fiber Optic attenuator is used to reduce the optical power level of a communication signal, in an optical fiber used in a fiber optic communication link. They use different principles of functioning like gap-loss, absorptive or reflective techniques. Three basic types of Fiber optical attenuators are step wise variable, continuously variable and fixed.

What is Fiber Pigtail?

March 27, 2012

Fiber pigtail (fiber tip) is fiber end with high optical quality. Fiber pigtails are used to achieve accurate mounting for precision alignment of fiber optical components.

What is CWDM Module?

March 27, 2012

Mux (Multiplexer) products combine several data signals into one for transporting over a single fiber. Demux (Demulitplexers) separate the signals at the other end. Each signal is at a different wavelength. WDM greatly increases the capacity of systems.

What is Ceramic Sleeve?

March 26, 2012

Ceramic sleeves (zirconia sleeve) are mostly used in Fiber Adpater for the main purpose of connecting and aligning two inserted  Ceramic Ferrules together.
