This ModCon Mode Controller is an innovative solution designed to enhance the precision and reliability of fiber optic measurements. This compact and lightweight module is engineered to modify LED or VCSEL light sources, ensuring they deliver a stable and consistent Encircled Flux (EF) compliant output. By simply integrating the ModCon with your existing light source, you can achieve outputs that meet the stringent requirements of IEC 61280-4-1:2009 standards. Accurate measurements in multi-mode fibers are crucial, as they are highly influenced by the modal conditions of the light source. Traditional measurement tools like OTDR and LS/PM often yield different results due to the inherent differences between laser and LED sources. The ModCon Mode Controller addresses this issue by standardizing the modal distribution, thus minimizing measurement uncertainties and improving the consistency of test data across different setups. Incorporating the ModCon into your measurement process not only enhances accuracy but also ensures compliance with international standards. Each unit undergoes rigorous testing with Arden’s MPX Modal Explorer to confirm its output aligns with EF standards, regardless of the input's modal distribution. Additionally, Arden Photonics provides a Certificate of Conformance or Test Sheet with each ModCon, assisting in maintaining accurate test equipment records and ensuring peace of mind for compliance verification. With its user-friendly plug-and-play design, the ModCon Mode Controller is a straightforward and effective method to boost measurement repeatability in multi-mode fiber tests. Optimized for 850nm and 1300nm wavelengths, it seamlessly integrates with all multi-mode fiber optic testers, making it an indispensable tool for professionals seeking enhanced measurement precision and reliability.
