18、 number of methods may be used to measure insertion loss. However, the principle is basically the same for each method. First, the amount of useful optical power which can be transmitted through the cable shall be measured without the specimens installed. Then, the specimen shall be inserted into th

19、e cable and the amount of useful power shall be measured again. The insertion loss shall be defined as the decrease in the amount of transmitted optical power and shall be expressed as a ratio in decibels (dB). The launch conditions shall be defined in EN 2591. 5.1 Method 1 It shall be limited to a

20、single measurement. It shall involve making the initial power measurement in a continuous (unbroken and without temporary joints) fibre. The fibre shall then be broken, the specimen inserted and the power measured again. This method requires a new length of fibre as well as the preparation and inter

21、facing of the fibre to the LLS and IDS for each specimen measured. a) Initial measurement Set-up, see figure 1.

It shall use two temporary joints. NOTE : The results will depend on the quality of the two joints and fibres. In some si

The

36、 number of measurements and the method for remating the connector when making multiple measurements depends on the nature of the particular connector family and arrangement. The following procedure for remating shall be followed : a) The connector set shall be completely uncoupled and recoupled for

37、each measurement. b) Non-keyed connector sets shall be relatively rotated 1 20 between components and multiple measurements made at each location. c) Single keyed connectors shall have multiple measurements made at the keyed position. d) Multi-keyed connectors shall have multiple measurements made a

38、t each keyed position. e) Patch cord connectors : in combination with the above rotations, reverse the orientation of the patch cord with respect to the direction of propagation of the light and the fixed plugs and adaptors. The number of measurements to be made relative to the above positions shall

39、 be specified in the product standard. 5.7 Requirements Insertion loss and standard deviation shall not exceed values specified in the product standard.
