Make the otdr optical time domain reflectometer ready for testing.
Fiber optic cable termination procedure.
Prepare the fiber ends.
Fiber optic cables.
The type of connector to be used in the termination depends on the type of cable and application.
Before beginning the splicing operation secure the cable in an optical fiber splicer tray organizer.
Splice the fiber optic cable to the factory made fiber optic pigtail.
When the otdr is ready strip the fiber and cleave it by means of a diamond edged cleaver to ensure the cleaving end should be perpendicular.
This standard describes procedures for installing and testing cabling networks that use fiber optic cables and related components to carry signals.
Fiber optic joints or terminations where cables are terminated are made two ways.
Splicing is a permanent method of termination.
Composite cable a cable containing both optical.
Techopedia explains fiber optic termination.
1 connectors that mate two fibers to create a temporary joint and or connect the fiber to a piece of network gear left or 2 splices which create a permanent joint between the two fibers right.
Two methods of fiber optic termination one type of fiber optic termination is the use of connectors that join two fibers to form a temporary joint.
Fiber cable is now ready for splicing and termination.
Turn on the splicer machine and then select the splice mode.
We terminate fiber optic cable two ways with connectors that can mate two fibers to create a temporary joint and or connect the fiber to a piece of network gear or with splices which create a permanent joint between the two fibers.
Take the prepared end of the cable inside the splice van to maintain the temperature and dust free environment.
The reason for the termination is either to create a connection to a device or transceiver to splice two cables into one longer cable or to multiplex a cable so that it can move more branches.
