Launch Condition Analyzer System / Encircled Flux

Measurements for Encircled FluxThe Launch Condition Analyzer characterizes connectors, fiber components and provides graphs illustrating how light exits the fiber. The analyses ensure conformity to industry standards.

Nearfield Analyzer The Nearfield (NF) describes the optical power density on the surface of a radiating source or the end of a fiber. The nearfield measurement can determine the refractive index profile of multimode fibers and the fiber’s mode filling, launch condition, and Encircled Flux (per TIA).

Farfield AnalyzerThe Farfield (FF) measurement is the optical power density of a source or fiber end on a surface measured at a radial distance. The farfield measurement can determine the numerical aperture of sources and fibers.
