Speedy route to custom fibre-optic products

Loopback features variable attenuation
Timbercon has released a variable attenuated version of its flagship product, the Armadillo loopback.
Timbercon recertification services focus on examining, testing and documenting products for mechanical and optical performance.
This ensures that the possibility of product failure during operation is at a minimum and that operating costs are also kept to a minimum.
On completion of the recertification process the product receives an updated performance/test report and a recertified status.
Timbercon, in addition to the recertification process, can repair or replace customer products to ensure they meet performance specifications once recertification is complete.
Recertification is of particular importance for products used in testing, such as master calibration cables and loopbacks.
Recertification assures the legitimacy of the test process and ensures that the highest quality products are being used for any customers testing application.
This helps avoid false failures which can decrease yield numbers.
Timbercon develops ongoing maintenance and recertification programmes catering to the needs of each particular client and their project requirements.
This ensures their products are performing at an optimum level throughout the product's lifecycle and minimises the chances of product failure during operation.
In addition to recertification, Timbercon also offers test and analysis services.
This allows for non-Timbercon-manufactured products to be tested to the company's high standards.
Testing for insertion loss, back reflection, attenuation, interferometric geometry and extinction ratios (for PM cables) is available.
