How to Do the correct MPO Cable Testing

When you move to this part, you may think that MPO testing may be a tough obstacle for us to conquer. So is there a simple way to do the testing? The answer is yes. You can just test all 12 fibers-the whole cable-simultaneously and comprehensively (including loss and polarity). That sort of test capability changes the fiber landscape, enabling installers and technicians to efficiently validate and troubleshoot fiber-flying through the process by tackling an entire 12-fiber cable trunk with the push of a button.

To do a proper MPO cable testing, you must need some proper testing tools. The tools to perform this type of test are emerging out there, and promise to reduce the time and labor costs up to 95% over individual fiber tests. Characteristics to look for in such a tool include the following parts.

1.An onboard MPO connector to remove the complexity and manual calculations associated with a fan-out cord.

2.A single "Scan All" test function that delivers visual verification via an intuitive interface for all 12 MPO fibers in a connector.

3.Built-in polarity verification for end-to-end connectivity of MPO trunk cables .

4."Select Individual Fiber" function that allows the user to troubleshoot a single fiber with more precision.
