How far can a VFL go?

There is much lively debate about what useful distance range to expect when using a visual fault locator (VFL) for testing single mode fiber installations. In this article I will provide my perspective and with it, a methodical analysis.

Guidelines On What Loss To Expect When Testing Fiber Optic Cables

To be able to judge whether a fiber optic cable plant is good, one does a insertion loss test with a light source and power meter and compares that to an estimate of what is a reasonable loss for that cable plant. The estimate, called a "loss budget" is calculated using typical component losses for each part of the cable plant - the fiber, splices and/or connectors. If the measured loss exceed the calculated loss by a significant amount (remembering the inherent uncertainty in all measurements), the system should be tested segment-by-segment to determine the cause of high loss.

Top four network modernization trends for 2024

Modern enterprise should never be constrained by the limits of an aging network infrastructure. The successful modern enterprise ensures that the entire operation is equipped with the bandwidth it needs, delivered securely to the furthest reaches of its extremities. Speeds of 100Gbps, with redundancy options, are the base upon which the modern enterprise should build when sharing data, applications and processes.  Time is money might be an adage your grandmother taught you, but it’s never been truer than in today’s business world where multi-million dollar deals may hinge on the efficacy of low-latency communications and applications. 

Optical Fiber Access Technology: EPON, GPON, 10G EPON and 10G GPON

This article introduces EPON, GPON, 10G EPON and 10G GPON in detail. EPON and GPON are two different optical fiber transmission technologies. They are both based on PON (passive optical network) technology.

Why is the bandwidth of optical fiber high?

For many business leaders, finding a balance between network capacity, cost, and user experience is a daunting task. But as more organizations depend on data-intensive cloud applications for their critical operations, reliable Internet connectivity is vital for productivity and operational efficiency.

Experts estimate that 200 ZB of data will be stored in the cloud by 2025, so if your bandwidth plan is too limited, you’ll likely grapple with challenges like unpredictable Internet usage patterns and spikes in traffic that negatively affect your network’s performance. That’s where the flexibility of burstable bandwidth service comes into play. In this blog, we’ll explore the benefits of burstable bandwidth and how it can help your business meet new Internet traffic demands.

New Arrivals of Nanjing JILONG - SINCE 1993

On the afternoon of September 7, 2023 Beijing time, Nanjing Jilong Fiber Optic Communication Co., Ltd. (referred to as Jilong Communication) held a grand 2023 Jilong Communication New Product Release and Dealer Appreciation Conference in Shenzhen, China, with the theme of "30 Years of Prosperity · A New Journey Together". As one of the cooperation partners, we are honored to have this rare chance of attending this ceremony to witness its great success.

What Products can you purchase in TheFo with the budget 79 dollars?

 Li, the famed "Lipstick King" who has about 75.76 million followers on Taobao Live, Alibaba's live-streaming platform, was making a pitch about an eyebrow pen on Saturday evening. He then read out a comment from a viewer saying the product including two refills priced at 79 yuan has become more expensive.

 "The product is expensive? Sometimes people need to find the reasons why they haven't received a pay rise after working so many years. Have they worked hard enough?" he said.

Many people then said Li's comments were inappropriate and had made them angry. The topic of his comment became one of the most discussed topics on social media on Sunday. 

5 Types of Optical Fibers for 5G Networks

Optical fiber cables have become one of the key points in the 5G competition. It's known that 5G networks will offer consumers high-speed and low-latency services with more reliable and stronger connections. But to make this happen, more 5G base stations have to be built due to the higher 5G frequency band and limited network coverage. And it's estimated that by 2025, the total number of global 5G base stations will reach 6.5 million, which puts forward higher requirements for the optical fiber cable performance and production.

Currently, there are still some uncertainties in 5G network architectures and the selection of technical solutions. But in the basic physical layer, the 5G fiber cables should meet both current application and future development needs. The following are five types of 

Daily Maintenance of Optical Fiber Cleaver You need to know

Optical fiber cutter is a tool used to cut optical fiber, but in the cutting process, there may be uneven cutting edge or lack of fiber core and broken core. What is the reason? Today let us illustrate and see more details to reach my point.
