18、EIA-455-2011FOTP-201Return Loss of ConnectorizedPolarization-Maintaining or Polarizing FiberPigtailed Devices or Cable Assemblies_1. Introduction_1.1 IntentThis Standard specifies a procedure for the measurement of the return loss of afiber optic interconnection on single mode, highly linearly biref

19、ringent opticalfiber, i.e. either polarization-maintaining (PM) fiber or polarizing (PZ) fiber. Theconnector can be mounted on the PMF/PZF pigtail of a component or part of acable assembly. Return loss, as used in this Standard, is the ratio of powerincident on, or entering the DUT, to the total pow

20、er reflected by the DUT,expressed in decibels. The method described in this Standard is the PMF/PZFequivalent of ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-107 with the return loss reported as a positivenumber.Alternately, this measurement is sometimes called “reflectance” for which thevalues are simply the negative of retur

21、n loss. Thus, “reflectance” is the ratio indecibels of the power reflected by the DUT, to the power incident on, or enteringthe DUT. The preferred terminology is “return loss” as will be used throughoutthe rest of this Standard.1.2 DefinitionsFor the purposes of this Standard, the following definiti

22、ons apply.Birefringence. The property of a material in which orthogonal light polarizationshave different indices of refraction, which cause the light at those polarizationsto travel at different speeds (also referred to as the fast and slow axes). Linearlybirefringent fiber maintains linear polariz

23、ation states along the length of the fiber.Unstable birefringence in standard single-mode fiber causes the states ofpolarization to behave in an unpredictable way. Polarization-maintaining fibersare a special class of single-mode fibers with a highly birefringent waveguidestructure that maintain the

24、 polarization states across the length of the fiber.Copyright Telecommunications Industry Association Provided by IHS under license with EIANot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-TIA/EIA-455-2012Polarization-Maintaining Fiber (PMF). A class of highly linea

25、rly birefringentsingle-mode fiber, unlike the common variety of low birefringence, single-modefiber used in telecommunication networks. PMF is used to guide linearlypolarized light from point to point, that is, to ensure that polarization does notchange with distance. As shown in Figure 1, the biref

26、ringence of commercialPMF is stress-induced by placing the core between or within glass elements ofdifferent physical composition, or by forming a non-round core.Polarizing Fiber (PZF). A highly birefringent optical fiber in which only onepolarization state is propagated with low attenuation.Princip

27、al Optical Axes. Those optical axes for which the speed of light in alinearly birefringent material is a maximum or a minimum.Slow Axis. The optical axis of a PMF or PZF which is aligned to the stress rods(as in PANDA or Bow-tie fiber), the stress region (as in Oval stress region fiber),or the major

28、 axis of an elliptical core fiber. For PMF to be actually polarizationmaintaining, linearly polarized light must be aligned with one of the axes,commonly the slow axis. By convention, the anti-rotation key of the connectorshould be aligned with the slow axis as defined in FOCIS-4A and to be followed

29、for other connector types, as shown in Figure 1.Fast Axis. The optical axis of a PMF or PZF which is orthogonal to the slowaxis.

36、3.1 Optical light sourceThe optical power source shall be a diode laser, either modulated orunmodulated, whose center wavelength and spectral width shall be within theparameters provided in Table 1, unless otherwise specified in the DetailSpecification. In addition, the source shall not emit more th

37、an 0.1% (-30dB) ofits optical power at wavelengths shorter than the cutoff wavelength (per FOTP-80) of any of the fibers (SMF/PMF/PZF) incorporated in the measurementapparatus.Table 1. Wavelength Requirements Of Optical Power SourceNominal Wavelength Center Wavelength RMS Spectral Width1310nm 1310nm

38、 +/- 30nm 5nm1550nm 1550nm +/- 30nm 5nmThe optical power of the light source must either be stable over the duration ofthe test or normalized by means of a reference. Without a reference, theuncontrolled variation in source power must be less than 1% (0.05 dB) duringthe measurement.The source power

39、must be capable of meeting the dynamic range requirementsof the measurement when combined with the detector sensitivity. In addition,the power launched into the component must not be at such a high level as toinduce non-linear scattering at levels higher than 10 dB below the level of testsensitivity

40、 desired. Use of an isolator is optional, but is recommended for lasersources to ensure stable operation.The optical power source should not be a single-spectral-line laser. Single-spectral-line lasers may have a coherence length long enough to turn the testset-up into an interferometer. Additionall

41、y, if the Device Under Test (DUT) issufficiently reflective, a narrow line width source may be destabilized.3.2 Single-mode optical directional couplerThe coupler shall be fabricated from non-PMF/PZF single-mode fiber whosecore diameter, numerical aperture and cut-off wavelength most closely matches

42、the PMF/PZF of the DUT. The coupler shall also be polarization insensitive toprevent any dependence on the angular position at which the DUT is connected.The directional coupler (or splitter) may be of any convenient coupling ratio if theselecting coupling ration remains stable throughout the measur

43、ementprocedure. Use of a three port (1x2) coupler is recommended. The coupler mayCopyright Telecommunications Industry Association Provided by IHS under license with EIANot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-TIA/EIA-455-2015have additional inputs and outpu

44、ts provided the unused leads are terminated innon-reflecting terminations.The coupler performance shall be characterized for insertion loss and directivityin accordance with FOTP-180 for use in the calculations of Section 6.Characterization in accordance with FOTP-180 shall be for the same wavelengt

45、hthat return loss/reflectance is measured.3.3 Non-reflective terminationThe termination shall be an optical load which is fully absorbent and non-reflective (at least 6 dB above the minimum acceptance level of the DUT) whenapplied to unconnected leads from the DUT, or to unused leads of the coupler.

46、Index-matching materials (gels or fluids) are normally acceptable terminationsfor this test. Mandrel wraps can also be utilized. Provide sufficient turns arounda 10mm mandrel, or other suitable method, to achieve minimum of 40 dBattenuation.Some connector polishing techniques are known to affect a f

47、ibers index ofrefraction. These techniques may result in a termination with return loss in the40 dB to 50 dB range when index-matching materials are used to achieve a non-reflecting termination with a connector. If index-matching materials and/or othernear-zero reflecting terminations are used, extreme care must be used to ensurethe materials are removed completely from the connector upon completion ofthis procedure. Failure to do so could cause false readings and contaminationof this or other connector ends.3
