Fiber testing (LWL) FiberTEK FDX<br />
8.11. Application-specific Configuration of a Fiber Test<br />
The certification of fiber cabling is usually performed according to TIA-568 or ISO 11801<br />
standards; in doing so, the passed/failed criterion is based on cable length, number of splices<br />
and connections in the fiber line.<br />
In addition to these criteria, the LanTEK ® <strong>II</strong> Cable Tester can also be configured for<br />
application-specific fiber tests. These fiber tests are particular beneficial when determining<br />
whether a fiber line supports certain types of network technology, such as 100BaseSX or<br />
1000BaseLX.<br />
1. Use Arrow Keys to navigate on ready screen to "Fiber" display and press Enter.<br />
8.11.1. Determine Loss Budget<br />
2. Mark the wavelength according to fiber (LWL) to be measured and press soft key<br />
.<br />
Illustration 1 8.11.1. Select Wavelength<br />
3. Use soft keys 850nm, 1300nm, 1310nm and 1550nm to select the according<br />
wavelength to specify the loss budget.<br />
Illustration 2 8.11.1. <strong>Manual</strong> Specification of Loss Budget<br />
NOTE:<br />
Refer to chapter Specifications in this instruction manual to find an overview of cabling<br />
standards and application requirements for the installation of fibers.<br />
The current limit for the loss is displayed in box Limit.<br />
4. If you want to keep the value, confirm with Enter, or use soft key to open<br />
input box for loss budget.<br />
5. Use Up/Down Arrow Keys to navigate to individual boxes and use<br />
alphanumeric keys to enter details concerning the fiber line.<br />
