Learning the Different Coating Stripping Methods

The cladding power stripper also referred to as the multimode optical power stripper is designed for amplifier applications and high power fiber laser. It is an ideal device  for ASE, residual pump power stripping, core modes that have escaped from double cladding fibers inner cladding while ensuring preservation of single power minimal degradation and beam quality (M2). Single power that is reflected into the inner cladding may also be stripped out too.  The handling capability of the stripping power goes to 800W or at times may be even higher

Stripping the Coating

The fibers that most reputable companies supply all come with a standard  acrylate single layer coating or, in some such as the high power products, a coating that is high temperature enduring. In comparison to dual layer coatings, the coatings that are single layer are more brittle and smooth. The coating can be removed readily using the conventional tools for fiber stripping such as the Fitel S-210 Clauss or CFS-1 for 125 μm cladding diameter fiber or for larger cladding diameters the Clauss No Nik stripper is used. For fibers whose outer diameter is non-standard, it is recommended that an adjustable stripper is used.  Thermal strippers such as those that are attached to the Schleuniger FiberStrip 7030 or the Vytran FFS-2000 can be used for all fiber in a safe way.

Alternatively, chemical stripping of fibers can be done using an appropriate solvent. For example, the coating can be exposed for one minute to sulfuric acid at 120°C sulfuric acid. Before the fiber is dipped into the liquid, the tip should be sealed with a drop of glue of 2 mm in diameter or through the end fiber hole collapsing using a fusion splicer.  It is worth noting that most glue types are dissolved in this acid, but epoxies that are two-component such as the Epotek ND353 tends to dissolve in a slower manner than the coating.

It is also possible to obtain chemical stripping through application on the fiber tip, of paint stripper. The paint stripper is usually in the form of a gel so as to reduce the occurrence of out-gassing and can be applied easily using a small brush. After a minute or so, the coating becomes soft and is removed easily using a lens tissue. It is worth noting that paint stripper typically contains dichloromethane (CH2Cl2) and as such there may be restrictions by local regulations to use it. For lower quality and faster stripping, another option would be to use a normal cigarette lighter to burn the coating off. However, the fiber may end up becoming brittle hence not the best choice for stripping.

Pump and signal combiner for bi-directional pumping of all-fiber lasers and amplifiers(9)

6. Demonstration of 440 W pump power handling

After detailed theoretical and experimental characterization of fiber pump combiners with multiple pump ports, a pump power handling performance test was conducted. For these investigations each pump port of a 4 + 1×1 combiner was connected to a fiber coupled pump diode (nLight Pearl) with an output power of ~110 W at a wavelength of 976 nm. The PFF and the delivery fiber of the pump diode had a core diameter of 105 µm with a NA of 0.22. At each fiber output end of the IF, a pump light stripper was applied to avoid the Fresnel reflection of the TP, and therefore the TP was not measured. Up to the maximum total pump diode power of 440 W, a coupling efficiency of 90.2% was experimentally determined (Fig. 13

fiber pump combiners

Fig. 13 Combined pump power for a 4+1×1 high power fiber combiner, * ratio of coupled power to total diode power in percent.

). In the simulations a slightly higher coupling efficiency of 92.8% was obtained. The difference of 2.6% in simulated and measured pump light coupling must be distributed among TP, PAA and PCT, with simulated values of 3.0, 1.4 and 1.7%, respectively. It can be assumed that the PAA-fraction is higher than 1.4%, since the fibers of the combiner are contaminated with dust particles in spite of intensive cleaning. If we assume for each individual loss mechanism an error of 1% related to the total diode power then PCT was 7.5 W ± 4.4 W, i.e. the coating of the TF and the pump power stripper had to handle this fraction of power.

4.4 Experimental results

In order to verify the simulations, two fiber combiners with a single pump port based on the setup described in Section 2 were developed. For the first combiner an IF with a low TR of 2.6 and a short TL of 9.5 mm was fabricated. In the case of the second combiner the TR and the TL were increased to 6.7 and 18 mm, respectively. For both combiners the geometrical dimensions of the obtained tapered IFs were measured with an optical microscope. After completion of the fabrication, both combiners were optically characterized. Therefore, each PFF (pump port) with a NA of 0.15 was connected to a pump diode (Oclaro BMU25) with a pigtail fiber delivering a maximum output power of ~25 W at a wavelength of 976 nm. The delivery fiber of the pump diode had parameters identical to the PFF.

The experimental results for the first fiber combiner are shown in Fig. 6(a)

getImage

Fig. 6 Coupled and transmitted power measured for a fiber combiner with one pump port with (a) a TL of 9.5 mm (TR of 2.6) and (b) a TL of 18 mm (TR 6.7), * ratio of coupled or transmitted power to total diode power in percent.

. Due to the low TR of 2.6, an experimental pump coupling efficiency of only 74% was achieved. The residual pump power was almost completely measured as TP, with a power fraction of 25.3%. The simulations for the coupled as well as the TP show good agreement with the experimental results, and confirm that in the case of a low TR of 2.6, the pump power is only divided into coupled power and TP. In Fig. 6(a) it can be seen that in the simulations the sum of the coupled and TP is 99.9%, corresponding to 0.1% of pump light rays not detected in the simulations. This can be treated as a simulation error. That the measured sum of coupled pump power and TP is only 99.3% can be explained by measurement uncertainties, marginal splice losses and additional power losses in the fiber component caused by dust particles. Since the thermal load of this fiber combiner design is negligible it would be feasible to couple several kW of pump power, but with the disadvantage of a moderate coupling efficiency of about 75% and consequently a undesirable overall efficiency for high power laser system.

For the second fiber combiner, depicted in Fig. 6(b), a higher pump coupling efficiency of 95.2% (96.0% in simulation) was measured as compared to the first combiner presented in Fig. 6(a) due to the increase in TR and TL. Following the simulations the residual pump power of 4% can be divided into TP, PCT and PAA with 2.4%, 0.6% and 0.9%, respectively. Again, the missing pump power of 0.1% was associated with an error owing to undetected power in the simulations. For the TP a fraction of 2.3% was measured and shows very good agreement with the simulation (2.4%), i.e. more than 50% of the total power loss was TP. This fraction of power represents no risk for damage to the fiber component. Due to the excellent agreement between simulation and experiment, the simulated PCT-fraction of only 0.6% is a good value for an estimate of the thermal load of the coating of the TF. Based on the simulations and experiments an error of less than 1% of the pump input power can be assumed for the PCT-fraction.

Unfortunately, the power fractions PAA and PCT are difficult to measure and therefore could not be experimentally determined. In future work an indirect measurement of PCT will be realized by measuring the coating temperature of the CWDM Module. In summary, the simulations describe the coupling efficiency as well as the fraction of TP very well, and thus, serve as a very good estimation for the fraction of PCT and PAA.

Fiber Optics Sensors Provide Early Warning for Landslides-DK Photonics

CASERTA, Italy, Sept. 29, 2014 — Fiber optic sensors could warn people of imminent landslides, potentially saving lives and reducing destruction.

A team at the Second University of Naples is developing sensor technology that could detect and monitor both large landslides and slow slope movements. The researchers hope to mitigate the effects of these major natural disasters, similar to the way hurricane tracking can prompt coastal evacuations.

Optical fiber sensors embedded in shallow trenches within slopes would detect small shifts in the soil, the researchers said. Landslides are always preceded by various types of pre-failure strains, they said.

While the magnitude of pre-failure strains depends on the rock or soil involved — ranging from fractured rock debris and pyroclastic flows to fine-grained soils — they are measurable. Electrical sensors have long been used for monitoring landslides, but that type of sensor can be easily damaged, the researchers said. Optical fiber is more robust, economical and sensitive.

“Distributed optical fiber sensors can act as a ‘nervous system’ of slopes by measuring the tensile strain of the soil they’re embedded within,” said professor Dr. Luigi Zeni.

The researchers are also combining several types of optical fiber sensors into a plastic tube that twists and moves under the forces of the pre-failure strains. This will allow them to monitor the movement and bending of the optical fiber remotely to determine if a landslide is imminent.

The use of fiber optic sensors “allows us to overcome some limitations of traditional inclinometers, because fiber-based ones have no moving parts and can withstand larger soil deformations,” Zeni said.

He added that such sensors can be used to cover several square kilometers and monitored continuously to pinpoint critical zones.

The team will present their research at Frontiers in Optics in Tucson, Ariz., next month.

Ovum: Optical components market to grow 8% in 2014 from $6.8 bn in 2013

The global optical components (OC) market is expected to grow 8 percent in 2014 from $6.8 billion in 2013, said Ovum.

In 2013, the OC market increased 3 percent from 2012. Ovum said main growth drivers in 2013 were data communication sales driven by large data centers, 100G coherent demand, and unexpected growth in sales of transceivers for fiber-to-the-antenna applications for 4G build-outs.

“Demand for 100G metro–optimized transmission gear will begin shipments and ramp in 2015. Multiple component vendors introduced components and pluggable optics for 100GHz DWDM in anticipation. Opportunities are also emerging in the data center for high-speed interconnects,” said Daryl Inniss, practice leader for Telecoms Components at Ovum.

In the first quarter of 2014, the optical components market declined 1 percent sequentially and grew 7 percent compared to the year-ago period.  New lower telecom prices were one of the main reasons for the marginal growth in OC on quarter-on-quarter basis.

Ovm said demand for 100G components for coherent transmission in WAN, datacom transceivers at 10 and 40G, and fiber-to-the-antenna transceivers is expected to continue. Traffic continues to increase, and high-speed optics being used in new applications are helping to drive the market forward.

Global-optical-components-market-forecast

The WAN OC segment, which includes components in telecom carriers’ core and metro networks, the largest segment, will grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11 percent to $7 billion in 2019. Demand for 100G components and modules is a big driver for growth in WAN.  Ovum expects strong demand for pluggable coherent transceivers in 2015.

Datacom will be expanding at a 16 percent CAGR to reach $4.2 billion in 2019 — led by demand for 10 and 40G components in the early years and then 100G in the later years driven by the availability of server ports supporting data rates greater than 10G.

Access — including CATV, FTTx and transceivers for the fiber-to-the-antenna application — will decline at 2 percent CAGR to $1.1 billion in 2019. The decline will be driven by the FTTx application, where volumes are nearly constant through the forecast period but price declines are projected to pull down revenues.

Fiber Media Converters in Private Datacom Market Forecast (March 2014)

Fiber Media Converters in Private DatacomMarket Forecast (March 2014)

According to ElectroniCast, the global use of fiber media converters in private datacom networks is expected to reach $1.29 billion in 2014…

Aptos, CA (USA) – March 20, 2014 —ElectroniCast Consultants, a leader in fiber optic market research, announced the release of a new market analysis of the worldwide use of fiber optic / Fiber media converters in private data communications.  A fiber media converter is a networking device that makes it possible to connect two dissimilar media types such as copper with fiber optic cabling, as well as (different) fiber-to-fiber (F2F), such as multimode to single mode optical fiber.

The worldwide value for selected fiber media converters used in private datacom networks reached $1.07 billion in 2013. The consumption value is forecast increase with strongly rising quantity growth partially offset by declining average prices.

The EMEA and the APAC regions are forecast for double-digit consumption value growth during the timeline covered in this study (2013-2018); however, the American region’s growth is forecast to “flatten” and eventually turn to negative.  The worldwide use of private datacom fiber media converters, which are specified in the ElectroniCast market study, is forecast to peak at $1.646 billion in 2017, before slipping to $1.628 billion in 2018.

“The fiber media converters researched in this market study are typically used within an existing Private Enterprise Data Centers (DCs) and Local Area Networks (LANs), as well as other non-public data communication links. They are often used to connect newer 100-Mbps, Gigabit Ethernet, 10G, or other equipment in existing networks, which are generally (copper-based) 10BASE-T, 100BASE-T, or a mixture of both,” stated Stephen Montgomery, Director of the Fiber Optics Components group at ElectroniCast Consultants.

“Several factors make the conversion from copper to optical fiber a good choice, such as – longer link lengths in campuses and industrial plants; resistance to electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference (EMI/RFI) may be necessary; and wider bandwidth capability, just to point-out a few examples,” Montgomery added.

The strong user demand for greater bandwidth and increased interconnectivity to the desktop, throughout the buildings, campuses, from LAN-to-LAN (Metropolitan Area Network – MAN) continues in 2014.

This is matched by rapidly growing demand for global broadband interconnectivity. Interactive multimedia terminals, triple play (voice, video and data), quadruple-play (adding mobility as a communications function to the network), and numerous other dynamics/ applications, continuing bring rapid access to massive databases, which increase productivity while providing rapid ROI (return on investment).

Such expanded capability, however, must often be obtained without making the current network elements obsolete. Local area network (LAN) applications illustrate this trend.  LANs are becoming larger and more complex. Reconfiguration, relocation, and extension of LANs are occurring more frequently, due to organization restructuring, advances in computer usage, and the trend toward decentralized computing.

These changes to LAN cabling represent a major ongoing operational expense and a disruption of work for many companies (enterprises). For example, adding capabilities often requires that network administrators upgrade their existing LANs to another media type: for example, copper-to-fiber, multimode-to-singlemode fiber, or even singlemode –to- different types of singlemode optical fiber (note: copper-to-copper conversion is not covered in the study). By using media converters, the network administrator can achieve these upgrades inexpensively.

According to ElectroniCast, the global use of fiber media converters in private datacom reached $1.07 billion in 2013 and is forecast to peak at $1.646 billion in 2017, before slipping to $1.628 billion in 2018.

Where can WDM-PON go next? — DK Photonics

Where can WDM-PON go next?

The current generation of commercial WDM-PON/ 100GHz DWDM systems based on reflective ONU technology is optimized for applications up to 20 km, 40 channels, and 1 Gbps per customer. Current research focuses on how to scale WDM-PON toward higher bit rates and longer reach. Forward error correction is a key technology for scaling the current generation of WDM-PON technology to higher bit rates, longer reach, tighter channel spacing, or a combination thereof. An important challenge is to package the technology in an MSA form-factor pluggable module to maintain its benefits in cost and compatibility with third-party equipment.
A typical requirement for next generation metro/access systems is to enable node consolidation. That means operators can reduce opex by closing down portions of their central offices; at the same time, this goal requires the optical signals to bridge longer distances than what is typical of the access networks of today. Thus, when routing WDM-PON / 1064nm high power isolator signals through the metro part of the network, it becomes necessary to support ring architectures as an alternative to the basic tree structure.
In a ring structure, cascaded filters may decrease the effective channel passband. Since the spectral width of the WDM-PON signal is wider than the signals from a normal DFB source, such filtering effects may affect transmission.
In a recent evaluation project, a partnership between Transmode and Deutsche Telekom Hochschule für Telekommunikation of Leipzig, Germany, achieved 140-km long reach WDM-PON transmission over a ring-based access-network architecture. The partnership investigated the effects of using WDM-PON based on ASE-seeded wavelength-locked transmitters in a ring-based network architecture with cascaded CWDM OADM nodes. Transmission at 1.25 Gbps over 140-km singlemode fiber was demonstrated using an EDFA and dispersion compensation.
The results were first published at ECOC 2013 (In de Betou, Bunge, Åhlfeldt, and Olson, “140km Long-reach WDM-PON Test for Ring-based Access Network Architecture”). This partnership has investigated what opportunities could be provided by WDM-PON technology in such network topologies by studying experimentally the influence of narrow filtering and maximum reach.
The experimental testbed (in Leipzig) was built around Transmode’s TM-Series iWDM-PON system to create an optical line terminal (OLT) (see Figure 2). The OLT has a transponder line card that hosts pluggable wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot transceivers, ASE seed light sources, dual circulators for up- and downstream, and a 40-channel multiplexer based on an AWG.
To reach distances beyond 100 km, amplifiers dispersion compensation, and remote ASE seed sources were used. While an experimental field trial today, it shows that WDM-PON may well continue to evolve to support longer reach and more sophisticated network architectures in the future supporting a broader range of deployment scenarios.

WDM-PON technology-DK Photonics

WDM-PON provides the dedicated bandwidth of a point-to-point network and the fiber sharing inherent in PONs. The architecture is somewhat similar to that of EPON and GPON; instead of the power-splitter approach used in TDM-PON architectures, WDM-PON uses an arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) filter that separates the wavelengths for individual delivery to the subscriber ONUs (see Figure 1).

A simple, plug-and-play implementation is based on wavelength-locked or tunable lasers. Self-tuning “colorless” ONUs can be used at the subscriber sites to simplify inventory and spare-part handling. Colorless optics not only simplify operations, but also reduce deployment costs, since they don’t need the expensive wavelength-stability components that traditional fixed and tunable optics require. There are multiple approaches to the colorless ONU technology.

In one approach, the wavelength of the ONU transmitter is controlled by injection of a “seed” signal into the transmitter (e.g., a wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot laser or reflective semiconductor optical amplifier). The seed signal injected into the transmitter could come from broadband ASE light sliced through the filters in the system or from a DFB laser array. In a self-seeding version of this approach, the seed light is provided by feedback of broadband light from the transmitter itself. The passive filtering of the seed light in the remote node determines the wavelength of the ONU transmitter.

In a different approach, the colorless ONU contains a singlemode optic coupler wavelength-tunable laser, which is able to tune to the appropriate wavelength that matches the remote node filter port.

Below 10-Gbps channel bit rates, the injection-seeded method provides a cost-efficient approach. As an example, a wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot transmitter can be integrated into an MSA SFP pluggable form-factor module, which enables the use of third-party CPE devices. A modified EDFA gain block in a 70×90 MSA form factor could be used to generate the broadband ASE light that’s used as a seed signal in the system.

At 10-Gbps bit rates, tunable-laser technology offers an alternative to the injection-seeded approach. The tunable-laser technology developed for the metro/long-haul market has matured significantly over the past couple of years and is able to give a good cost-per-bit ratio when high capacity is needed.

If the WDM-PON system is properly designed, then it’s possible to mix different transmission technologies. By following certain design rules during the installation of the WDM-PON system, it’s possible to allow step-wise channel upgrades to higher bit rates when the demand arises. These design rules ensure that channel OSNR requirements will be met in the presence of reflections and that inter-channel crosstalk is avoided. The result is an open and flexible access network that can support many applications and services over the same infrastructure. WDM-PON thus becomes an optical option for the access network as and where it makes sense.

Given its ability to help service providers cope with current bandwidth demands as well as the next potential broadband access bottleneck, WDM-PON100GHz DWDM Module is becoming an important technology to consider in terms of its benefits and market timing. As with any emerging technology, service providers need to consider the optimal strategy for initial deployment of WDM-PON. That includes how they could use WDM-PON for additional network applications as the technology matures and its costs come down.

62.5/125 um Vs. 50/125um Multimode fiber Information

We have created this page to illustrate the very basic differences between 62.5 and 50/125 multimode fiber in selecting a patch cable for your existing cable plant.

62.5/125 um Vs. 50/125um Multimode fiber
62.5/125 um Vs. 50/125um Multimode fiber

The key thing to remember is to always use a patch cable of the same type as the cable that you are connecting to. It is virtually impossible to tell the difference between the two fiber types (62.5 and 50/125) by looking at the bare fiber* or the connectors*. Usually, this information will be written on the cable’s jacket.

The photos above illustrate that the outer diameters of the two fiber types are the same. What is different is the size of the center light carrying core of the fiber. You cannot see the fiber’s core without a microscope*. Therefore, you must rely on the writing that is on the fibers jacket to determine what type is.

Severe losses of light can occur when you try to match 50/125 and 62.5/125 fiber, as the illustration on the left shows.

62.5/125 um Vs. 50/125um Multimode fiber

* CAUTION: Never look directly into a fiber cable’s end face or into the ferrule of a connector (with fiber present) as there may be dangerous laser light present.

NOTE: This page was designed to help you know the difference between 62.5 and 50/125 fiber for the purpose of purchasing patch cables and products to connect to existing installed cabling. This page was not designed to provide information on choosing between the two types fiber for new installations.

What is Pump Laser Protector, Where is the Pump Laser Protector use?

The Pump Laser Protector (also called Pump Protection Filters) is a passive component which allows maximum transmission from a discrete fibre-coupled pump laser diode and blocks parasitic signals around the centre wavelength of the laser from being reflected back into the laser.

Pump Laser Protector
Multimode Pump Laser Protector -10~30W

Single-emitter laser diodes are highly regarded for their long term reliability. However, these devices are very sensitive to backward propagating light within the delivery fiber. Backward power imaged onto the diode material, as small as 5% of the pump diode output, can cause accelerated diode degradation and, in the majority of cases, catastrophic failure.That is why we need Pump Laser Protector.

DK Photonics offers filter technology that provides protection to pump diodes under these conditions (up to 50 dB Backward Signal Attenuation). Splicing these filters to the pump output fiber rejects unwanted light before it reaches the diode.

Multimode Pump Protection filters are available for a wide range of standard light emitting diodes. Fiber pigtails are 105/125 micron, with both 0.15 and 0.22 NA cores and 50/125 or 62.5/126 MM fiber available. Operating wavelengths cover the majority of diode laser lines (915 nm, 940 nm, 960 nm and 976) and maximum power handling is 25W without water-cooling.DK Photonics recently released a new type of Pump Laser Protector up to 200W handling power with water-cooling technology. And also have SingleMode Pump Laser Protector with Hi1060 fiber for 976nm fiber laser.
