FiberPatrol FP1150 Product Guide
End module
The end module terminates the laser light signal at the end of each sensor fiber, without causing
undesirable reflections. There are 3 types of end modules available, a single end module
(FPMA0212) a double end module (FPMA0222) and a double end module that is included in the
fiber connection module (FPMA0922). The end module can be located outdoors in a splice
enclosure or indoors in the fiber connection module. The location of the end module depends on
the sensor cable configuration.
Sensor cable/non-detecting lead cable
For fence-mounted applications, FiberPatrol sensor cable is telecommunication grade single-
mode fiber optic cable with a medium density polyethylene outer jacket and a waterblock system.
The non-armored loose tube cable is comprised of a 5 unit fiber optic core (12-fiber buffer tubes
and PE filler units) a central strength member and a rip cord (see
). Sensor cable can be
ordered in lengths of up to approximately 12 km (7.5 mi.) with 12, 24, 36, or 48 fibers. However, to
facilitate transportation and on-site installation, maximum reel lengths of 5 km (3.1 mi.) are
recommended. The non-detecting lead cable is identical to the sensor cable, with detection
sensitivity being controlled via software. For buried cable applications and sites that require
additional protection against accidental damage or vandalism, armored sensor cable is available
(see
).
