Dead Zone Eliminating Launch Box – Case
Download Data SheetRECEIVE A PRICE QUOTE
The MP-0800 Launch Box is a Dead Zone Eliminator that can be attached to the launch and/or receive terminals of an OTDR test set to allow accurate measurement of the first and last connector in the cable plant.
The Dead Zone Eliminator is a suitable length of fiber that allows the large UPC reflection at the OTDR interface to decay naturally while providing the natural fiber attention slope required for an accurate measurement.
If only unidirectional OTDR measurements are required, a second Dead Zone Elimiator can be connected to the last fiber in the cable plant to obtain an accurate measurement of the connector insertion and return loss.
The MP-0800 Launch Boxes are available in standard size Pelican boxes or in a soft pouch (500 meter fiber length or less) with your choice of fiber length, type, count, connectors, and furcation.
