DUAL-ENDED OPTICAL FIBER PATHWAY

In an optical fiber turnaround, first and second optical fiber cores are configured to transmit light bidirectionally along a transmission axis between proximal and distal ends of the first and second optical fiber cores. A reflector component is positioned at the distal ends of the first and second...

Zusammenfassung:In an optical fiber turnaround, first and second optical fiber cores are configured to transmit light bidirectionally along a transmission axis between proximal and distal ends of the first and second optical fiber cores. A reflector component is positioned at the distal ends of the first and second optical fiber cores. The first core, second core, and reflector component are configured to provide a bidirectional routing path, wherein light energy travels from the proximal end of one of the first and second cores towards the reflector component, and travels back from the reflector component along the other of the first and second cores.
