KIT Fiber Optic Reflectometry
Product description
The fiber optic reflectometry training kit completes the educational telecommunications training kit. It is composed of a pulsed laser diode emitting at 830 nm, a 1×2 SM coupler and a silicon avalanche photodiode. It is therefore possible to make a comprehensive study of the reflectometer, and to check the influence of the physical parameters on the performances of a reflectometer. A fiber optic module is necessary in order to carry out the experiments.
