JGR Optics Launches a New MS12 Return Loss Module for 50um Fiber Compliant with IEC Encircled Flux Standard

Ottawa, Ontario, September 18, 2012 (Virtual Press Office) – JGR Optics Inc. announced today the release of a new MS12 Mandrel-Free IL/RL Test Module compatible with 50um fiber and compliant with the IEC encircled flux standard (IEC 61280-4-1). The existing MS12 module compatible with 62.5um remains available and has also been improved to also become compliant with IEC encircled flux standard.

Both MS12 modules are compatible with the MS12001 system and can be added to existing systems without any software or firmware upgrade.

“The addition of the 50um MS12 module and the compatibility of all MS12 multimode mandrel-free IL/RL modules with IEC encircled flux standard will help our MS12001 customers increase the accuracy and repeatability of loss measurements.” said Pierre Leonard, President and CEO of JGR Optics.

Both MS12 modules are available to purchase today and will be demonstrated at ECOC in Amsterdam, September 17 to 19 (Booth #670).
