EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of TIA EIA 455-14 testing. TIA-EIA 455-14 is a standardized test method developed by the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) and Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) to evaluate the ability of fiber optic connectors to withstand mechanical shock. The test is often referred to as the Fiber Optic Shock Test.
The Fiber Optic Shock Test evaluates the mechanical strength of fiber optic connectors by subjecting them to a series of shocks of increasing severity. The connectors are mounted on a test rig and subjected to a series of blows using a mechanical shock device.
The shock mount delivers a series of shocks to the connectors, with each shock larger than the previous one. The connectors are subjected to up to 0,5 shocks, each with a duration of 1.500 milliseconds and a peak acceleration of up to 100g.
After testing, the connectors are inspected for damage, including cracks, chips, or other types of physical damage. The Fiber Optic Shock Test aims to evaluate the ability of connectors to withstand mechanical shocks that may occur during installation or during normal use of fiber optic systems.
The TIA-EIA 455-14 standard provides a standardized test method for evaluating the mechanical strength of fiber optic connectors. By subjecting connectors to a series of controlled mechanical shocks, testing can help identify potential design or manufacturing defects that could lead to connector failure in the field. The test also provides a standardized way to compare the shock resistance of different types of fiber optic connectors.
