What is the function of the fiber splitter box?
Fiber splitter box is a key distribution equipment in fiber to the home (FTTH) and fiber to the building (FTTB) networks, mainly used to solve the problem of fiber core resource allocation and achieve flexible scheduling of optical signals. The key functions supported by structural design is mainly 4 parts: Fiber distribution adapter plates or splice slots […]
What is the average cost of home broadband per household?
PROJECT CASE: Analysis of the network and operation of operator M in province A in eastern China Composition of investment in home broadband network construction The construction of home broadband network mainly includes: ODN (optical distribution network) construction, Internet equipment construction, business network and supporting construction. The topology of home broadband network from user end to […]
What are the common reasons that affect the quality of home broadband services?
Although about 60% of home broadband service quality problems occur in home networks (see the article “What are the main quality issues of home broadband?”, users thought all problems are caused by the operator’s network quality. So what is real? From the perspective of end-to-end connection, the operator’s home broadband network is mainly composed of broadband fiber access network, […]
Broadband Fiber Access Network Application
Broadband fiber access refers to an access bearing method that uses optical fiber as the transmission medium throughout the entire process between the user network interface and the relevant service node interface, or uses optical fiber as the backbone transmission medium and metal wires or wireless as the user terminal transmission medium. The technologies […]
Engineering budget for attenuation testing in FTTH access projects
In the article “FTTH Access Project Attenuation Test”, mentioned that the loss test in FTTH access project includes: single reel inspection of optical cable, loss test of optical cable line, local test of optical splitter, and full test of ODN optical fiber link. So how should these tasks be applied in the project budget? Single drum inspection of optical cable Although […]
How new optical splitters can significantly reduce ODN expansion costs?
In the above article “How the new optical splitter doubles the access capability of the Combo port”, the current resource usage of the Combo port and the principle of the capacity-doubling optical splitter (hereinafter referred to as: new optical splitter) are introduced. The following section will introduce the use method and effect of the new […]
How the new optical splitter doubles the access capability of the Combo port?
Combo port resource usage status With the development of fixed gigabit services, XG-PON is gradually taking a dominant position in broadband access networks. In order to share ODN with GPON, XG-PON usually uses Combo optical modules (commonly known as “Combo ports”). Whether users use GPON ONU or XG-PON ONU, they can directly connect to the optical splitter […]
How to calculate and measure fiber optic splitter loss？
In the optical network topology, the emergence of fiber optic splitter helps users maximize network performance. An optical splitter fiber is a passive optical device that can decompose optical signals into multiple optical signal outputs, including one or two input ports and multiple output ports. When the optical network system needs to couple and distribute optical […]
What Is Unbalanced Splitter And Application in ODN Networking?
Traditional ODN usually use balanced split ratio PLC splitter, the optical power of each output port is the average distribution ratio of that of input ports, commonly use 1xN and 2xN series. And the most widely used are mini module splitter, cassette splitter and modular splitter, the most widely used are 1×4, 1×8 and 1×16 splitlter […]
Fiber Patch Cord Types and Functions
According to different fiber types and transmission modes, fiber patch cables can be divided into two categories: Single Mode Fiber Optic Patch Cables and Multimode Fiber Optic Patch Cables. Single mode fiber patch cables are mainly use OS1 and OS2 fibers, generally are G.652D fiber, G.657A1 fiber, G.657A2 fiber, G.657B3 fiber, please refer to article “7 types of optical […]
Fiber Optic Patch Cables, Fiber Patch Cords
Fiber optic patch cord is patch cables from the equipment to the fibra optic link, also called fiber optic jumper, fiber patch cord, fiber optic patch leads, etc. With a thick protective layer, it is generally used for the connection between the optical transceiver and the terminal box, widely applications in communication rooms, fiber to the home, […]
What is G.652D fiber?
G.652 fiber is the earliest type of single mode fiber used and is currently the most widely used fiber in communication networks. Whether it is long distance network, local network or access network, G.652 fiber is the absolute protagonist, accounting for more than 95% of its overall usage. G.652 is a dispersion non-shifted single mode fiber. Its cutoff wavelength is the […]
