Underground Fiber Optic Cable Detector

No more network outages caused by inadequate fiber detection or identification and a minimized need to access the network helping to prevent errors.

Included with each detector are adapters for bare fiber and fc st lc sc and sma connectors making the 918d is a universal fiber optic detector.

These sturdy cables are built to resist moisture heat soil acidity and other environmental factors that could interfere with their performance. They have been used in center cities where construction is difficult but not widely. Enables technicians to identify a specific live fiber without having to disconnect it and above all without having to guess. Deploying raysense fiber optic intrusion detection system provides reliable perimeter security for up to 100 km 62 miles through a single fiber optic cable detecting and locating within 6 meters 20 feet over the entire perimeter.

This video presents the fiber optic cable laying on underground application. When first introduced approximately 40 years ago underground locators needed to do little more than find buried water gas or sewer lines. Abstract the detection of buried fibre optic fo cables in an urban environment is a problem when using gpr. Installation underground in other services there are methods using robots to install fiber optic cable in storm sewers or other underground pipes.

What can be detected is the cable strengthening the jacket the trenching the ducts they are. Today locating has become more complex as telecommunications cables join utility lines in the underground environment. Underground cable locator is a commonly uesd underground fiber optic cable locator which consists of two parts a transmitter and a receiver. Use an underground cable locator to find buried cable.

The fibres themselves are not detectable as they are essentially sand. 918 is series detectors have a db15 connector integrated into the end of their cable and are compatible with all of newport s optical meters that accept such a connection. Daisy chaining additional controllers provide unlimited reach. C 2018 the fiber optic association inc.
