Now that AV is rapidly increasing in its deployment of fiber optic technology, a need to better understand how fiber optic connectors can affect the signals in a AV system. This workshop is designed to introduce and educate the design engineer, technician, user or student how to select and terminate a fiber optic connector. Examples of popular fiber optic connector types will be discussed with a live or video demonstration on how to terminate a popular fiber optic connector.
Discussion:
• What is a fiber optic connector (FOC)?
• Why use a FOC?
• Which FOC is best for my application?
• How easy is it to put/terminate a FOC together?
