Coreless Termination Optical Fiber – Acrylate Coated
Termination optical fiber is a coreless silica fiber. It is useful for eliminating back reflections from unused branches of a multi-port device as well as performing return loss measurement.
A termination of better than 65 dB is achieved by splicing approximately 0.25 meters of this fiber to the desired component. A fusion splice also provides higher reliability and long-term stability over conventional termination methods.
There is excellent repeatability since there is no potential for subsurface damage, fiber breakage, or fiber contamination as with polished or angled cleaves. A quality termination using a patented method (U.S. Patent No. 5,263,103) is possible for all fiber designs including high delta fibers such as erbium-doped fiber.
