24、) TESTING OF FIBER OPTIC COMPONENTS (From EIA Standards Proposal No. 2243, formulated under the cognizance of TIA FO-6.3, Subcommittee on Fiber Optic Interconnecting Devices, and TIA FO-6.4, Subcommittee on Fiber Optic Test Methods and Instrumentation.) This FOTP is part of the series of test proced

25、ures included within Recommended Standard EIA/TIA-455. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 The intent of this test is to provide a means of evaluating the effects of low barometric pressure (high altitude) on fiber optic components. Although intended primarily for the evaluation of devices such as interconnecting d

26、evices, the method may be applied to other components when applicable and when required by a Detail Specification. 1.2 Alternative Method. This test is similar to that prescribed by FOTP-15, except that specimens tested under FOTP-15 are immersed in water during low pressure exposure in order to sim

27、ulate the effects of moisture condensation which accompany rapid descents from high altitude. Also, FOTP-190 provides a wider choice of test pressures than does FOTP-15. Intent. 1.3 Failure Modes. The potential failure modes for this test include, but are not limited to: a. b. Unacceptable changes i

28、n optical transmittance, Unacceptable changes in insertion loss, c. d. Damage to device seals, e. Other failure modes (such as changes in engagement and Unacceptable changes in return loss, separation forces) may be specified by the Detail Specification. This method is similar to Method 105C of MIL-

APPARATUS The following apparatus and equipment is requi

34、red to perform this test: 3.1 Altitude Chamber. Use an appropriate altitude test chamber consisting of a suitable sealed chamber which has means for visual observation of the specimen under test, when necessary. 3.2 Vacuum Pump. The test chamber pressure shall be reduced by means of vacuum pump equi

35、pment which is capable of maintaining the reduced pressures as shown in Table I, as required, with a tolerance of k 5% or k 0.1 kPa (.O3 inches of mercury), whichever is larger. Note: A tolerance of k 2 kPa is acceptable for pressures higher than 82 kPa (24.3 inches of mercury). 3.3 Pressure Indicat

36、or. Use a suitable pressure indicator to measure the simulated altitude in the sealed chamber to the tolerances specified in 3.2. 3.4 Other Equipment. Optical and other test equipment shall be available as required by FOTPs -13, -20, -34, or -107 (or other), as appropriate. 4. SAMPLING AND SPECIMENS

37、 4.1 Samples. Unless otherwise specified: (a) Select samples randomly from production lots of the component to be tested. (b) Test specimens shall be fully assembled (mated, if a connector) fiber optic components with appropriate test cables attached. 4.2 Spechen Preparation. After completing proced

38、ure step 5.1, place specimen(s) in the chamber, mounted as specified. The connected cable(s) shall be arranged so as to prevent any extreme bends which might damage the fiber, and with cable ends out for connection to optical measuring equipment. In process of preparation. Pending publication of thi

39、s revision, use IEC SC86B(Central Office)69 dated July 1989. O EIA/TIA-455-190 Page 4 5. PROCEDURE 5.1 Pre-Test Inspection. Before installing specimens in the test chamber, make a visual and physical examination of each specimen in accordance with FOTP-13 to assure that specimens have not been obvio

40、usly damaged before test. 5.2 Pre-Altitude Reference Measurements. After specimens are installed in the altitude chamber, and before evacuating the chamber, perform any pre-test optical tests required by the Detail Specification. Unless otherwise required by the Detail Specification, measure the opt

41、ical transmittance of all optical paths in accordance with the requirements of FOTP-20. (Use of FOTP-34 to measure insertion loss, or of FOTP-107 to measure return loss, may be specified by the Detail Specification as alternatives to FOTP-20.) Record results.
