1100 Single Fiber Aligner
Fast, low loss temporary splices with no instrument
feedback 
The 1100 Single Fiber Aligner uses patented fiber alignment concepts to
produce virtually instantaneous temporary couplings for OTDR, dispersion,
or any other optical fiber or component test that requires a
fiber-to-fiber connection. It delivers low loss, low reflectance couplings
on the first try virtually every time, without the need for test
instrument feedback. As a result, temporary coupling times are minimized
and manufacturing costs are reduced without compromising product
quality.
Features and Benefits
High Speed Couplings
- No instrument feedback required
- Virtually eliminates instrument downtime
Low Loss and Reflectance
- Maximizes instrument dynamic range and measurement accuracy
High Stability
- Enables accurate OTDR-based prediction of mode field diameter and
cutoff wavelength
