ASD external fiber optic cables most commonly come in one of the
configurations listed in Figure 4-4. The millimeter size (mm) is the internal
diameter of the fiber optic bundle.
The TerraSpec spectrometer comes with the 1.7 mm external fiber optic cable
diameter.
4.3 Matching Fiber Bundles
There should now be an understanding of how the external fiber optic cables
and the fixed fiber optic bundle matcher are configured, they now need to be
combined. The three scenarios in Figure 4-5 show how the fiber optic bundles
are matched.
Figure 4-3 View of the fiberoptic cable, fiber bundle matcher, and fiber connection.
Screw the fiber bundle matcher into the fiber connection as far as possible.
