Termination

Image
Measured and stripped to spec with accuracy
Image
Epoxy cured with consistency
Image
Polishing
Twenty-four fiber end faces are machine-polished at once for precise geometry.
Finishing
Each fiber end face is inspected at 400x magnification to detect and remove contaminants.
Image

Testing

Image
3-D metrology tested measuring the orientation of the strain elements
Image
Insertion loss and return loss tested

Bezel Assembly
