- Quality control personnel
Why should you use BS EN 61300-3-52 - Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components?
Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components architecture implement a point-to-multipoint topology in which a single optical fibre serves multiple endpoints by using unpowered (passive) fibre optic splitters to divide the fibre bandwidth among the endpoints. BS EN 61300-3-52 describes alignment pin and ferrule deformation depending on the applied force at the pinned edge that can vary for different ferrule design attributes including material properties, internal geometry, and surface roughness. The amount of deformation influences the amount of y-direction translation and therefore the nominal y-offset location of the fibre cores, Yi.
BS EN 61300-3-52 provides a detailed specification on the procedure of preparations, gauge block specification, alignment pin specification, acceptable value of guide hole and alignment pin deformation constant CD, maximum measurement force applied to the sample, the difference from this method and measurement uncertainty. Using BS EN 61300-3-52 describe a procedure to measure guide hole and alignment pin deformation constant, CD for 8degree angled PC rectangular ferrule multi-fibre connectors.
