Chapter 5 Fiber Optics Cable Field Calibration and Testing METHOD ‘A’ Calibration Setup The Method ‘A’ calibration uses two launch cables and a set of couplers. This is the recommended calibration procedure for FIBERTEK, as it does not require disconnecting the launch cables from the modules. Test Setup Figure 5-3: Method 'A' Calibration Setup The Method ‘A’ test setup is best used for long fiber links where the majority of the attenuation is caused by the cable itself, not the connectors. With this configuration, the calibration reference plane is at the patch panel and work area outlet. The measurement taken will include the loss of the fiber optic cable (including inline splices and couplers) and the individual connector at each end of the link (one pair). Since there is only one pair of connectors included in this measurement, the overall loss values may be lower than one would expect, particularly when this setup is used to test very short cables. When used on long links of over 1km (multimode) or 4km (single mode) the loss of the connectors is small compared with the fiber, making this an acceptable setup for longer links. Use this configuration when knowing the loss of the optical fiber is more important than knowing the total link loss. Figure 5-4: Method ‘A’ Test Setup 5-5
Chapter 5 Fiber Optics Cable Field Calibration and Testing METHOD ‘A’ ALTERNATE Test Setup The Method ‘A’ Alternate test configuration makes it possible to use a dual fiber test system while measuring the actual loss of all the connections and fiber optic cable. By using the ‘A’ Method for calibration and adding a new test jumper for testing, the Method ‘A’ Alternate is useful for testing short links where the connectors make up a large portion of the link attenuation. Figure 5-5: Method 'A' Alternate Test Setup Recommended Setup Calibration Method ‘A’ & Test Method ‘A’ Alternate 1. Following a successful field calibration as described in Method ‘A’, disconnect the Remote Handset launch cables from the couplers. 2. Connect another set of launch cables to the Display Handset launch cables. You should have two sets of launch cables connected to the Display Handset and one set connected to the Remote Handset. 5-6
