EIA 455 Cable Flexing Test for Fiber Optic Interconnect Devices

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of EIA 455 testing. The purpose of this test is to determine the ability of fiber optic interconnect devices, device interfaces, and strain reliefs to withstand bending and flexural stresses from loads that may be encountered during installation and service conditions.

Cable flex is a test performed on fiber optic cables to evaluate their durability and ability to withstand repeated bending or stretching. Fiber optic interconnect devices such as connectors or adapters can also be tested in this way to ensure they are robust and reliable.

Cable flex testing typically involves subjecting the fiber optic cable or device to a specified number of twisting, twisting, or flexing cycles at various angles and in different directions. The cable or device is then inspected for any signs of damage, such as cracks, breaks, or deformation.

The purpose of this test is to simulate real-world conditions of use and determine how long the cable or device can withstand repeated bending or flexing stresses and strains.
