HOME / Are explosion-proof fiber optic splitters useful - Automation Authority Telecom & Energy Systems
In both offshore and land-based natural gas and oil rigs, multi-channel high-speed fiber optic cable is required to control automation as well as monitor equipment status and communicate
Where splitters are placed in the network can make significant impacts on fiber counts, network cost and deployment time and operational steps, such as customer onboarding and maintenance.
PLC splitters offer a better solution for larger applications. Waveguides are fabricated using lithography onto a silica glass substrate, which allows for routing specific percentages of light. As a result, PLC
In short, while fibre optic cables are often perceived as completely risk-free in explosion-prone areas, that is only true under certain conditions. Proper protective measures – particularly
Strict safety standards and certifications ensure fiber optic equipment operates safely in hazardous oil and gas areas. Smart sensing and miniaturized explosion-proof components enhance
It contains two cable glands for secure, protected cable entry, and a splice cassette provides a reliable connection between multicore fiber cables and Axis Fiber Optic breakout cables,
Only put the necessary explosion-proof or intrinsically safe interface devices in the hazardous zone and connect them via fiber. This minimizes energy within the dangerous area and
Despite having no electrical sources, fiber optic interconnect is not deemed to be intrinsically safe. This means its use in an explosive atmosphere needs to be covered by standards
