English to Portuguese Tech/Engineering Electronics / Elect Eng specific terminology
Does anyone there master Optic Fiber transmission, equipment, terminology, etc?

I’m dealing with a monitoring system – wire fences, cameras, etc. – to be installed in a farm in Mato Grosso, owned by an Arab potentate. I have access to some specialized dictionaries but only English-English. I know what they mean but I am not sure how to translate it. Could someone help me, please?

Equipment to be installed:

PM Fused Coupler = Acoplador ligado à PM (Phase Modulation = Modulação de Fase)?
Acoplador PM Fundido?
Ou o quê?

Polarization Maintaining Coupler (PMC) (built by using super fusing **tapering technique**). The PMC can be used to split high power linear polarized light into multiple paths without perturbing the linear state of polarization.
PMC parametres: Back Reflection > 45 dB
Achei: reflexão traseira

Communication plate specifications: … Sink current 15 m A Source current 15 m A
Achei: sink current – refer to: current sink = dissipador atual (the maximum current that data acquisition output channels can dissipate.
Achei: sink current = coletor de corrente

FOG Based Strap-down Inertial Navigation/Hybrid Navigation System = Sistema de Navegação por Inércia Rígido/Navegação Híbrida Baseado no FOG

FOG Based Strap-down Inertial Attitude Reference System = Sistema de Atitude por Inércia Rígido baseado no FOG

Right answer - wrong place Mainn - put your answer 'acoplador ligado à modulação faseada' in the 'PM coupler' and I will give you the correct answer. Actually I used 'modulação de fase', so please edit it when entering the glossary

tecnica de afilamento?

Not sure if 'afilamento' can be used in this case. I guess it's the best word to describe this type of technique (fibers get stretched and, fusion and tapering produces a single piece of glass in the coupling region).

English term (edited): PM Fused Coupler

Acoplador ligado a modulacao faseada

I am trying to think of other definitions. I'll keep you posted on the other issues - looking at my own dictionaries. :) Hope the one above helps.
