Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optical fiber line loss and optical fiber connector termination quality detection. The device connects a stable light source, a forward detector of an optical power meter, and a standard connector of a detection end through an optical splitter. The optical fiber connector is connected to the standard connector through an adapter. The connectors are coupled together and the side detector of the optical power meter is installed in the adapter. After the detection light wave emitted by the stable light source is branched by the optical splitter, when part of the detection light wave reaches the coupling point, the intensity of the refraction and diffuse reflection light received by the side detector can be used to judge the loss of the fiber end face; the communication light wave enters through the coupling point of the fiber optic connector In the optical splitter, part of the communication light waves finally reaches ...

Problems solved by technology

[0002] At present, in the FTTH fiber-to-the-home project, the non-preset optical fiber connector has no connection point in the V-shaped fastening groove because the prepared on-site optical fiber directly passes through the surface of the ferrule, which greatly reduces the optical performance such as insertion loss after termination However, the optical power meter carried by the construction personnel can only measure the loss of the optical fiber line, and cannot detect the loss of the fiber end face of the fiber optic connector that is terminated on site. The loss of the end face leads to confusion in the judgment of construction responsibilities, which seriously affects the experience of operators on non-pre-installed optical fiber products

[0003] The product currently available on the market that can simultaneously detect fiber line loss and fiber end face loss is an optical time domain reflectometer, which uses the reflection loss phenomenon generated by light waves at the fiber loss point and th
