Telecommunications announces the release of EndLight(TM) Low Back Reflection Termination, which minimizes back reflections in Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH (Fiber To The Home) See FTTP. ) networks, optical measurement and transmission equipment, and fiber optic sensors. Back reflections are known to degrade the performance of many types of fiber optic systems, including analog video The original video recording method that stores continuous waves of red, green and blue intensities. In analog video, the number of rows is fixed. There are no real columns, and the maximum detail is determined by the frequency response of the analog system. , high speed digital, and sensor systems. AFL Telecommunications' EndLight (TM) Low Back Reflection Termination effectively eliminates back reflections to undetectable levels on most measurement equipment. The termination is ideal for inclusion in back-reflection sensitive equipment and for ends of splitters deployed in FTTH networks. It's available as a refillable software option for use with the Fujikura FSM-40F or FSM-40PM fusion splicer splice tr.v. spliced, splic·ing, splic·es 1. a. To join (two pieces of film, for example) at the ends. b. To join (ropes, for example) by interweaving strands. 2. . The product and manufacturing method are patent-pending. Additional Features of the EndLight(TM) Low Back Reflection Termination: -- Very small footprint enables placement in multiple device types -- Can terminate different fiber types -- Manufactured in seconds -- Manufactured using PC-based software connected to the splicer -- Refillable in various quantities EndLight will be on exhibit during the Optical Fiber Communication (OFC) conference March 25 - 28 in Atlanta.
