TAURKENAM SC/UPC OTDR Launch Cable 1km 1310/1550nm power adapter

SKU CH-79WH-6025E

SC/UPC single-mode launch cable eliminates the OTDR blind zone at 1310/1550 nm wavelengths and includes a storage box and bag for protection

  • Eliminates OTDR dead zones with 1310/1550 nm single-mode launch cable
  • 1 km fibre length provides sufficient delay for accurate fault location
  • Includes protective storage box and carry bag for dust-free transport
  • SC/UPC connectors ensure low-loss mating with standard OTDR test ports

SC/UPC OTDR Launch Cable for Blind Zone Testing

This single-mode fibre cable compensates for the blind area encountered during OTDR measurements at 1310 and 1550 nm wavelengths. It is designed for technicians who need to characterise link loss and reflectance close to the test port. The 1 km length provides sufficient delay to separate the launch pulse from the first connector event. Supplied in a protective storage box and dustproof carry bag for field use.

Single-Mode 1 km Length at 1310/1550 nm

The 1 km fibre span determines the minimum measurable distance after the launch connector, making it the critical specification for selecting this accessory. Shorter cables will not fully resolve the dead zone for standard OTDR pulse widths at these wavelengths. Buyers needing a shorter dead-zone solution or multimode compatibility should look elsewhere.

Highlights

  • Eliminates OTDR dead zones with 1310/1550 nm single-mode launch cable
  • 1 km fibre length provides sufficient delay for accurate fault location
  • Includes protective storage box and carry bag for dust-free transport
  • SC/UPC connectors ensure low-loss mating with standard OTDR test ports

Questions about this item

How does the 1 km launch cable affect the OTDR dead zone during testing?

The 1 km length provides enough fibre to move the launch-end reflection past the dead zone, letting the OTDR characterise events that would otherwise be hidden.

What do the 1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelengths mean for single-mode testing?

They are the two standard single-mode windows; the cable supports both so one launch box covers the full range of typical OTDR measurements.
