Fibre is penetrating deeper into access networks, requiring flexible test solutions that quickly qualify installations and detect impairments.
Ensuring that installations are correct – with records of workmanship – is a challenge with large installer or maintenance groups.
For these reasons JDSU developed the new SmartOTDR handheld fibre tester, an affordable, easy-to-use device for techs at any level, with robust wireless connectivity options to increase productivity. Targeted at contractors and service providers working on fibre fronthaul, backhaul and access networks, it provides cloud-based connectivity features that can empower assets and manage data from anywhere in the network.
SmartOTDR integrates all essential fibre test requirements, with options for OTDR (optical time domain reflectometer) measurement, fibre end-face analysis, optical loss testing and visual fault location. It enables fast and easy measurements with one-touch operation, automatic analysis and a tailored OTDR user interface for different skill levels. Field operations are accommodated thanks to its light, compact, hands-free design and extended battery life up to 20 hours.
The instrument comes with a three-year warranty and includes a one-year trial of cloud-based StrataSync for asset, configuration and test data management.
