FTTH solutions from HellermannTyton

Integrated Circuits and Wavelength Selective Switches. The CTP10 mainframe hosts up to 10 hot swappable modules and contains embedded software for configuring the desired test set-up. The GUI displays the graphs and analysis results simultaneously on two external screens. The platform has been designed for heavy duty measurements in both R&D and production environments. It covers the wavelength range from 1240 to 1680 nm and features the capability of testing 4 devices independently at the same time. MACOM announces new solutions for SFP28 short reach applications MACOM Technology Solutions has launched two companion devices which, combined, offer a complete transmit and receive solution for 25G Ethernet, 32G fibre channel and CPRI applications. The MATA- 37644 is a multi-rate 28G CDR with Trans-Impedance Amplifier (TIA) and Limiting Amplifier (LA), and the MALD- 37645, is a multi-rate 28G CDR with VCSEL driver and input equaliser. The MATA-37644 and MALD-37645 both are available in a die form for low cost wire-bonding assembly and feature high-performance, reference-free CDRs that can be bypassed to support legacy or non-standard data rates. The CDRs retime at 25 to 28.1Gb/s, and 21 to 25.3Gb/s as well as divide by two data rates. The devices can be individually controlled through the 2-wire serial interface and consume ultra-low power, making them the ideal solution for small form-factor SFP28 applications. The MATA-37644 includes a high- sensitivity TIA with selectable bandwidth control to support legacy data rates and an output driver with programmable output swing and 2-tap de-emphasis. The MALD-37645 provides customers with programmable bias and modulation current, enabling interoperability with a variety of VCSEL lasers as well as an adaptive input equaliser to support flexible VSR connections to host ASICs.

HellermannTyton have designed a range of outlets, distribution boxes, customer connection points and connectorised wall boxes that, combined with the fibre splice closures, provide full end to end FTTH solutions for both new developments and existing buildings. Depending on the size of the building, be it a large or small Multi Dwelling Unit (MDU) or a Single Dwelling Unit (SDU), the range of products offers a number of options in fibre connectivity

It can be mounted aerially or at ground level to deliver up to 8 drop cable customer connections (CCP). CCP is used as a Building Entry Point (BEP) to provide a fibre termination and network demarcation point external to the connected premise in an SDU FTTH network. It also presents a network test point outside of the customer location. HellermannTyton is exhibiting at AngaCom 2017. Hall 7, stand E73.

and distribution. Below are two of the latest products introduced into the company’s FTTH range. The Fibre Facade Enclosure provides a cost effective secure solution for installing pre-terminated drop cables in FTTH applications. The enclosure has been designed to physically separate the feeder cable 250μm fibres, which will be spliced by a skilled technician at the initial install, from the pre-

terminated connectorised drop cables which may be installed at a later date and are likely to be completed by a lower skilled installer. FiberFox launches Mini 4S and 6S

Yenista Optics has developed the CTP10, a next-generation platform for the fast testing of passive optical components such as Photonic Yenista Optics unveils optical component test platform

FiberFox will use this year’s AngaCom to showcase their Mini 4S and 6S alignment splicers. Both splicers offer rugged durability, with anti-shock, up to 1 metre in height, dustproof and waterproof functionality, and a full touch screen with GUI interface and tempered glass. The Mini 4S weighs just 1.31kg, without battery and offers a heating time of 18 seconds (60mm sleeve). The Mini 6S weighs 1.39kg with a heating time of 18 seconds. FiberFox is exhibiting at AngaCom 2017. Hall 8, stand N70.
