Main Features
The OTDR:
Offers impressive dynamic range with short dead zones
Performs quick acquisitions with low noise levels to enable accurate
low-loss splice location.
Acquires OTDR traces made of up to 256 000 points that provide a
sampling resolution as fine as 4 cm.
Includes a light source.
Trace Acquisition Modes
The OTDR application provides the following trace acquisition modes:
Auto: Automatically calculates fiber length, sets acquisition
parameters, acquires traces, and displays event tables and acquired
traces.
Advanced: Offers all the tools needed to perform integral OTDR tests
and measurements and gives you control over all test parameters.
Template (optional): Tests fibers and compares the results to a
reference trace that was previously acquired and analyzed. This allows
you to save time when testing a large number of fibers. Reference trace
documentation is also automatically copied to new acquisitions.
Fault Finder: Rapidly locates fiber ends and displays the length of the
fiber under test. This allows you to perform quick tests without having
to set all the acquisition parameters.
