35、elecommunications Systems Bulletin) Designers, end-users and installers that are involved in telecommunications cabling systems are continually using optical fiber cabling systems to support a variety of networking technologies. These designers, end-users and installers have expressed a need to clar

36、ify testing of optical fiber cabling. This expressed concern was brought to the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) TR-42.8 Subcommittee on Optical Fiber Cabling Systems as a proposed project. In turn, Engineering Committee TR-42 agreed with this need and assigned the project to TR-42.8. T

37、R-42 asked that the TIA Fiber Optics Engineering Committee, FO-4, be involved in the development of this Telecommunications Systems Bulletin. The FO-4 Engineering Committee graciously accepted endeavoring to help designers, end-users and installers understand proper testing of optical fiber cabling.

38、 TIA Telecommunications Systems Bulletins are developed within the Technical Engineering Committees of the TIA and the standards coordinating committees of the TIA standards board. Members of the committees serve voluntarily and without commission. The companies that they represent are not necessari

39、ly members of the TIA. The bulletins developed within the TIA represent a consensus of a broad expertise on the subject. This expertise comes from within the TIA as well as those outside of the TIA that have an expressed interest. The viewpoint expressed at the time that this Telecommunication Syste

40、ms Bulletin was developed is from the contributors experience and the state of the art at that time. This Telecommunications Systems Bulletin has been prepared by the TR-42.8 Subcommittee and approved by the TR-42 Technical Engineering Committee. iii Copyright Telecommunications Industry Association

42、-140 1 INTRODUCTION Accurate characterization and testing of installed optical fiber cabling is crucial to ensuring overall network integrity and performance. An optical fiber cabling link may consist of a fiber or concatenated fibers (spliced, cross-connected or interconnected) with a connector or

43、adapter on each end. The fiber type, link length, the number and quality of terminations and splices, cable stresses, and wavelength can all affect attenuation measurements. For example, link attenuation can be negatively influenced by severe cable bends, poorly installed connectors or even the pres

44、ence of dirt on the endface of connectors. The attenuation measurement result should always be less than the designed attenuation budget (also known as loss budget) that is based on the number of terminations and cable length. Documenting the test results provides the information that demonstrates t

45、he acceptability of the cabling system or support of specific networking technologies. Testing installed optical fiber cabling for attenuation with an optical loss test set (OLTS), as described in cabling standards, and verifying the cabling length and polarity constitutes Tier 1 testing. Tier 2 tes

46、ting, which is optional, includes the Tier 1 tests plus the addition of an optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR) trace. An OTDR trace can be used to characterize the installed fiber link resulting in an indication of the uniformity of cable attenuation and connector insertion loss. See clause 7 f

47、or descriptions of test measurement methods. 2 SCOPE Testing conducted on optical fiber cabling should be in accordance with a published standard. This Telecommunications Systems Bulletin (TSB) describes field-testing of length, optical attenuation and polarity in optical fiber cabling using an opti

48、cal loss test set (OLTS), optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR) and a visible light source such as a visual fault locator (VFL). The purpose of this document is to clarify, not replace, ANSI/TIA/EIA-526-7 and ANSI/TIA/EIA-526-14A. Tier 1 criteria, unless otherwise instructed or requested, constit

49、utes testing in accordance with this TSB. 2.1 Safety All tests performed on optical fiber cabling that use a laser or light emitting diode (LED) in a test set are to be carried out with safety precautions in accordance with ANSI Z136.2. 2.2 References The following documents contain provisions, which through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this TSB.
