Project overview

• Design and build a device capable of verifying the correct polarity/channel allocation of fiber optic (FO) assemblies.
• The equipment must automatically detect and validate whether the polarity configuration is correct and present a clear pass/fail decision for each tested assembly.

Objectives & expected results

• Deliver a fully functional prototype of a polarity test device with automated pass/fail criteria based on channel allocation.
• Improve quality and reliability of FO assemblies testing, eliminate human judgement errors and increase testing speed by ~50%; support future automation initiatives.

Responsibilities & deliverables

• Develop hardware (sensing, switching/multiplexing, interconnects) and embedded software required to test multi-channel FO assemblies.
• Implement a user interface for operators and produce documentation: test procedures, validation reports and user manual.

Technical profile & skills required

• Target profile: Electronics Engineer / Technician or Electrical Engineer/Technician (final year project level).
• Technical skills: embedded systems programming, electronic circuit design, experience with fiber-optic connectors and polarity concepts, test automation and instrumentation.

Validation & testing

• Define automated validation criteria for channel allocation and implement repeatable test routines.
• Provide test logs, pass/fail reporting and procedures to validate device accuracy and repeatability.

Practical information

• Duration: 4-6 months as stated in the topic.
• Collaboration with Engineering department; deliverables include prototype, UI, documentation and test/validation evidence.
