Troubleshooting of high-speed multimode networks with encircled flux
Whether it’s for an expanding enterprise-class business or a large-volume data center, new high-speed data networks built with multimode fibers are running under tighter tolerances than ever before. In case of failure, intelligent and accurate test tools are needed to quickly find and fix the fault.
Multimode fibers are the trickiest links to test because the test results are highly dependent on each device’s output conditions. Troubleshooting with a different unit than the construction unit may mislead the technician or result in the inability to find the fault, creating longer network downtimes.
For multimode fibers, EXFO recommends using an external launch mode conditioner that is encircled flux (EF) compliant. The encircled flux standard (as recommended in TIA-568 via TIA-526-14-B and IEC 61280-4-1 Ed. 2.0) is a way of controlling the source launch conditions so that Tier-2 troubleshooting can be performed with maximum accuracy and consistency.
The use of an external EF-compliant device* such as the SPSB-EF-C30 will ensure a fast and easy way to fix faulty networks.
