Discussion topics include:

  • Best practices to validate your curing schedule including the starting point, and characterizing the oven ports
  • Best practices for epoxy preparation and dispensing

Meet with the Fiber Optic Center Technical Team

Full view of both mechanical and fusion methods of splicing and impacts on lowering insertion loss compared to fiber connectors.

Discussion topics include:

  • Splicing types
  • Benefits and applications for cable assembly houses
  • Field installations and severed buried cable solutions

Meet with the Fiber Optic Center Technical Team

The most common questions we receive include what is causing our poor IL/RL, how can we ensure clean fiber connections and do you have specific cleaning techniques during fiber optic cable assembly manufacturing and installation? This discussion is based on the answers and guidance we provide daily!

Discussion topics include

  • How to verify connector end-faces that meet or exceed industry standards on end-face cleanliness (IEC 61300-3-35).
  • How to identify the number of ways in which the end-face can (and do) become contaminated

Meet with the Fiber Optic Center Technical Team

Discussion on polishing best practices for consistent results.

Discussion topics include:

  • Polishing Film Selection for Consistent Polishing Processes
  • Proper Care of Polishing Fixtures for Optical Fiber Polishing Machines

Meet with the Fiber Optic Center Technical Team

The technical team combines their field experience to demonstrate and discuss how to enhance process, results, and fiber optic cable assemblies.

Discussion topics include:

  • Determining cause of high loss
  • The misunderstanding about Negative IL values
  • Protecting the detector
  • Test Lead Quality Steps
  • Why we cannot stress enough the cleaning before the test

Meet with the Fiber Optic Center Technical Team

Next generation architectures are driving the need for optical connectivity solutions requiring greater fiber density than can be achieved with current formats.

Discussion topics include:

  • TMT ferrule different dimensions require TMT-specific fixturing and tooling in order to assemble: Identifying the differences
