Optimal organization of your networking cables delivers these benefits: • Enhanced signal integrity by minimizing macrobend losses • Protection of cables from macro-bending damage • Improved accessibility for maintenance and [ Continue reading…]
Advantages of Jetting Fiber Optic Cable Over Traditional Pulling
No CommentsWhat are the advantages of blowing or jetting fiber optic cable vs. traditional pulling? Pulling and blowing are the two primary fiber installation methods. But each of these techniques can impact the longevity, performance, and return on investment (ROI) of a fiber optic network. If you take into account [ Continue reading…]
Why should I calibrate fiber optic test and splicing equipment?
No CommentsWould you drive a car with a speedometer that gives you faulty readings? How can you tell how fast you were driving? Optical testing equipment that is out of calibration will also cause faulty test readings. A fusion splicer that is out of calibration will produce inferior splices. False [ Continue reading…]
Fiber Optic Fusion Splicing – Arc Checking and Maintenance
No CommentsWorking with fiber optics takes a delicate hand and some patience. One of the most used pieces of equipment is a fusion splicer. A fusion splicer uses an electric arc to fuse two pieces of optical fiber (glass) together so that light can pass through with no scatter of light [ Continue reading…]
