Angled Connector Specifications

118
Specifications require an angled connector at the source output and at
optical input ports 1 and 2 of the optical receiver.
Angled contact connectors help you to control return loss. With angled
fiber endfaces, reflected light tends to reflect into the cladding, reducing
the amount of light that reflects back to the source.
The contact connector on your Lightwave Component Analyzer is angled,
you can only use a cable with angled connectors. The Lightwave
Component Analyzer input requires angled connectors. Do not use a cable
with a flat connector on either the angled input connector or on the angled
output connector.
The angled connector symbol is typically colored green. You should
connect straight contact fiber end connectors with neutral sleeves to
straight contact connectors and connect angled contact fiber end
connectors with green sleeves to angled contact connectors.
