LINK-C: Basic Fiber Optic Trainer Kit
 |
LINK-C is a Basic Fiber Optic Trainer Kit designed to
experimentally measure the speed of light. This kit
utilizes an oscilloscope to monitor a light pulse in its
passage between a transmitter and a receiver,
coupled with fiber optic cable. At the receiver, the
oscilloscope displays the phase delay and basis for
the calculations which will determine the speed of
light through the fiber. A 20MHz dual trace
oscilloscope (not included in the kit) is required to
make the measurements.
|
Link-C can further be used as an Analog Link to study
the fundamentals of fiber optics, including
characteristics of fiber optic cable & fiber optic
components.
Facility is provided in Link-C to study the effect of EMI
interference on optical fiber cable. It can be noticed
that there is absolutely no effect of EMI interference on
data transmitted through optical fiber cable. To
enable students to understand this effect, it is
demonstrated in this kit, that EMI interference is
observed when medium of transmission of data is
copper cable.
Link-C can also be used for Analog communication
for a small distance. An exhaustive manual is provided
with the kit. This manual contains excellent
documentation on each & every experiment, data
sheets of components used & circuit diagram of the
complete kit.
