Accessories for modern Fiber Optic Installations Terminators, UGT (Optical transition adapters), Reflectors
OTM OPTICAL TERMINATION MODULES
Definition • A Terminator is a fiber termination with the lowest possible back reflection • A Terminator perform high Return Loss, good environmental stability and long working life • A protection for open connections
The solution • Based on doped attenuating fiber SMF Att-F Break Light -45dB -14dB Min. -45dB Total: Min. -104 dB
In real terms • Mechanic and geometry of the standard connectors • Pre-centered crimped ferrule without additional alignment • Standard polishing process (PC or APC) • Strongly attenuated fiber, minimum 15 dB/cm • Simply cleaved fiber at the end of the “alberino”
Products • All “Alberino” connector as Terminators • E-2000™, SC, FC, ST • and F-3000™
Typical RL values • SM-PC: RL Min 45 dB • SM-APC: RL Min 70 dB
Applications • Telecommunication distribution panels • Measuring devices • CATV Installations • on open, temporarily unused channels
OTA (UGT) OPTICAL TRANSITION ADAPTER
Definition • UGT are in line adapters for transition from PC to APC or from APC to PC technology • An UGT perform high RL, good environmental stability and long working life. • The ideal solution for an optimal, space-saving transition
In real terms • Mechanic and geometry from the standard in line attenuators (except E-2000™) • non-attenuating standard fiber • Standard polishing process (PC or APC)
Products • All connector system presenting attenuators • E-2000™, SC, FC, DIN, ST • Special solutions based on other connector standards upon request 0°/8° UGT
Typical values • IL max. 0.7 dB • RL PC min 45 dB • RL APC min 70 dB • Repeatability of IL max. +/- 0.3 dB
Applications • Measuring devices • As protection or transition element
ORM OPTICAL REFLECTIVE MODULES
Definition • A Reflector is normally used as a fiber termination with the highest possible back reflection • The reflection is performed by a perfect polished nickel alloy ferrule end face • High reliability and repeatability
In real terms • Mechanic and geometry of the standard connectors • Ferrule without hole - closed end face • Standard polishing process (PC)
Products • All “Alberino” connector as Reflectors • E-2000™, SC, FC, ST and F-3000™
Typical values • PC (0°) - ORM : RL < 1 dB (Standard nickel alloy insert.) Note: other ferrule types are available upon request
Applications • device manufacturer (reflectometers) • device calibration
