JGR Optics offers MS12001 mandrel-free cable assembly test system

June 16, 2011
JGR Optics Inc. has released the MS12001 Mandrel-Free Cable Assembly Test System. The system includes the MS12 Mandrel-Free IL/RL Test Module Series, designed to provide accurate insertion loss and reflectance measurements with enough sensitivity to enable mandrel-free reflectance measurements down to -80 dB on cable lengths as short as 1 meter.

JGR Optics Inc. has released the MS12001 Mandrel-Free Cable Assembly Test System. The system includes the MS12 Mandrel-Free IL/RL Test Module Series, designed to provide accurate insertion loss and reflectance measurements with enough sensitivity to enable mandrel-free reflectance measurements down to -80 dB on cable lengths as short as 1 meter. The test and measurement system also includes the MS7 Series of modular optical switches and a new family of modular platforms, the MS05P, MS10P, and MS10E.

The MS12 module series includes three singlemode modules for testing at 1310 nm, 1490 nm, 1550 nm, and 1625nm; two multimode modules for testing at 850 nm and 1300 nm; and a loss meter module for high-throughput applications.

The MS12001 system’s fully automated software and the customizable modular architecture enable users to configure different combinations to design a test system that will fit current needs, while protecting their investment.

The MS12001 software and the MS12 modules are fully compatible with EXFO’s IQS-12001B Cable Assembly and Component Test System, allowing existing customers to upgrade their systems and exchange modules from one system to another.

“We have been offering insertion loss and reflectance measurement solutions for a few years with the BR5, MBR5, and MLT backreflection and loss meters, but the release of the MS12001 Mandrel-Free Cable Assembly Test System really allows us to tailor the perfect solution for our customers, no matter what their requirements are” said Pierre Leonard, President and CEO of JGR.
