Visit Fiber Optic Center at Stand A12 During ECOC 2024
Booth Schedule Includes Product Demonstrations and One-On-One Discussions
Meet with Fiber Optic Center Technical Team
Join us at the show for a product demo of the Domaille 5400 Fiber Optic Polishing Machine! Don't forget to speak with the team about the NEW Domaille 5400 Automated Polishing Machine Suite as well.
The APM-HDC-5400 polishing machine integrates many new customer-driven design attributes.
Advancements include:
Increased polishing pressure up to 24lbs
AbraSave+® innovation
Integrated Micro-G® controls
Bi-directional polishing platen
Improved overarm handle and lock mechanism
Illuminated arm pushbutton displaying machine status
Assembly of the MMC Connector is very similar to the assembly of MPO connectors. However, since the TMT ferrule has different dimensions, much of the standard production equipment will require TMT-specific fixturing and tooling in order to assemble.
Fiber Optic Center Technical Team is available to discuss the recommended materials and equipment designed specifically for TMT assemblies.
Meet with Neal Weiss, Founder of Fiber Optic Center
An overview of coatings for a wide range of standard communication and specialty optical fibers. The main job of coatings is to protect the glass fiber, but there are many intricacies to this objective. Coating materials are carefully formulated and tested to optimize this protective role as well as the glass fiber performance.
Optical fiber and cable are the key building blocks of the passive plant. Proper construction of the physical layer provides a good foundation for the information highway.
Discussion topics include:
Transmission standards scaling up from 622 Mbps to 50 Gbps in 25 years
All ITU and IEEE PON network standards are structured to use the passive plant of previous generations and provide stable performance to support future generations of transmission technology
How to:
Know the cable standards and specifications
Know the requirements of your installation and environment
Take advantage of latest "easy-to-use" connectors and splice products
Meet with Neal Weiss, Founder of Fiber Optic Center
The most common processes used to make rare earth-doped fibers are the Rod and Tube method, the Solution Doping Process and the Vapor Phase Process. The latter two are used most commonly in conjunction with the MCVD process which will be discussed.
Almost all epoxies used in the fiber optic industry are two-part epoxy systems consisting of a resin and a hardener or activator. All the chemicals in these two-part epoxies can cause an allergic reaction, but the component most commonly causing an allergic reaction is the resin. Epoxy resin is the third most frequent cause of occupational allergic dermatitis, or in other simple words, allergic skin reactions.
Discussion will focus on:
When adverse reactions increase and how to minimize
Differences between the two types of Contact Dermatitis: Irritant and Allergic
Step by steps to reduce the risk of either type of dermatitis: preparation and protection
The lathe, rotary seal, optical pyrometer, deposition burner, and diameter control system all must work together to successfully manufacture a preform. This discussion will offer recommendations including setting up commissioning, operating, and maintaining multiple MCVD gas delivery systems.
Discussion topics include:
Tips to better control preform collapse
Ideas to improve pressure control and diameter control
Lathe deposition burner and pyrometer combinations
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
