Requirement: Optical fibre LAN simulator. |
|
The LanSim LS-1 is a Local Area Network Simulator, designed for proving LAN test equipment and for training installation and test engineers. It is shown in use here with a Megger Crossheck multimode OTDR. The LS-1 contains various features seen in a typical LAN, such as splices, cross-connects, connectors and constrictions. Furthermore, the LS-1 is dual channel, so everything is duplicated. This enables a range of different simulator configurations to be set up, simply by attaching patchcords to the bank of SC connectors on the front panel.

A related product is the FTB-1, which is a singlemode fibre test box providing fibre lengths of 50m, 250m, 500m, 1000m, 2500m, 5000m, 7500m. These lengths can be used individually, or cascaded, as required. The FTB-1 also provides attenuation values of 5dB, 10dB, 20dB for checking the linearity of test equipment, and a 0.4dB switchable filter for use in tandem with the other filters for accuracy calibration according to IEC test procedures.
