CIT-1000 SERIES
Optical Cable Impact Testing Machine
UNIVER CIT-1000 Series Optical Fiber Cable Impact Testing Machine is intended to determine the ability of optical fiber cable withstand impact , it has a hammer with a 20mm diameter to drop vertically on a cable sample fixed on a flat steel plate. It also allows a single or multiple repeated impacts to be imparted on the cable sample. The energy of the impact is determined by the drop height and by the weight of the hammer.
Knowledge
Intent
The intend of the cable impact test is to subject the optical cable to impacts perpendicular to its surface that could be experienced during installation.
Objective
To verify the mechanical integrity of the optical cable.
To verify the optical performance of the optical cable
Setup
The cable impact test shall be in accordance with TIA-455-25 (FOTP-25).
Acceptance criteria
The cable shall not exhibit evidence of damage. The maximum attenuation increase shall not exceed 0.10dB at 1550 nm for any single-mode fiber under test; the average increase of all fibers under test shall no exceed 0.05dB per fiber. The maximum attenuation increase for multimode fiber shall be 0.4dB at 1300nm
