FO-1 FIBER OPTIC DESIGN TRAINER

DESCRIPTION
• This trainer is a proven three-component fiber optics kit, available in the market, comprises a 660 nm LED (SMA connectorised), a matching phototransistor (SMA connectorised) and a 1-meter 960/1000 micron step index PMMA fiber simplex cable, terminated with SMA connectors.
• This kit facilitates experimenters and professional users to design a variety of fiber optics systems on their own, Conversion of existing electrical systems to FO systems is possible using this trainer which is supported by a wide range of low-priced optional transceiver modules for transmission of analogue, TTL, CMOS, video, FM and FSK signals.
• Speeds over 100 KHz and distances in excess of 20 meters are possible with this trainer.
• Instruction manual comes with Wiring diagram, circuit description and step by step procedure
SIMPLEX CABLE WITH PMMA FIBER USED IN THIS TRAINER
• The simplex cable with PMMA fiber finds application for short distance analog and digital signal transmission.
• The step index fiber has a large area of cross section and a high numerical aperture, facilitating easy coupling with transmitting and receiving devices.
• The light is guided along a fiber of one millimeter approximately to distances of a few tens of meters.
• The other main applications of PMMA fibers are in sensors light guides and displays.
