Opis

Speeds and capacities of fiber optic transmissions now exist as what was 'theoretical' only a few years ago. In this time, numerous new products to clean the fiber optic connection have been introduced to the market. Some are based on 'convenience', others marginally perform, while still others approach the ideal of first-time-cleaning. The reality is that barely 30% of these connection are inspected in the field, while there is nearer 100% inspection on the production line. Thus, along with "dry cleaning" and "wet-to-dry" cleaning the author introduces the reality of "blind cleaning" by those without fiber inspection. Fiber optic cleaning is a simple process that follows tenets dating back more than two millennia Outlined in this work are comparisons of contemporary products and suggestions how to make them work better. The author encourages each user to create an internal standard based on the applications specific needs of an individual deployment. This work is intended to assist in identifying how to initiate an internal standards process by identifying not only specific debris, but also include the idiosyncrasies of a specific deployment or connection type. The author directs each reader to come to their own conclusion as to which cleaning process and cleaning product works best for an individual deployment or application. Logically, not all cleaning products work the same way or return the same result. The test sections of this book provide valuable insights as crafts persons work to maintain existing installations and 'future proof' deployments. Suggested is an expansion of existing standards to include a wider 'field-of-view' than commonly provided by most video inspection. Existing standards consider both the end face as well as debris and contamination in only two dimensions: in reality connections, as well as contamination, are, of course, three dimensions. These awareness are critical to properly clean the connection and "future proof" deployments of all types as ever greater speeds and network capacity evolve. This work is an abridged version without photographic detail of an actual laboratory study with more than 70 additional pages and 100+ photographs also available at www.createspace.com/5271116. The author offers to analyze specific problem areas and will train and certify.
