VIAVI OTDR Modules (8100 Series)

Description

OTDR test solution for use in the installation, turn-up, and maintenance of Enterprise, FTTx, Access, Metro, very long-haul and ultra long haul networks.

VIAVI 8100-Series OTDR EVO family includes the “8100A”, “8100B”, the “8100C”, and the “8100D” modules for any singlemode or multimode OTDR application and test scenario from very short to ultra-long distances. Learn more about OTDR Testing and Fiber Testing.

The optical performances of the 8100-Series OTDR modules combined with the complete suite of T-BERD/MTS platforms testing features ensure that any testing job is done right the first time.

Benefits

• Industry leading dead zone performance which allows full characterization of element events on a fiber link 2 meters apart (EVO family)
• Combines OTDR, power meter and continuous light source for added testing flexibility (singlemode wavelengths)
• Avoids the risk of live signal interference or damage to the optical transmitter when performing an OTDR test with instantaneous automatic traffic detection
• Eliminates OTDR interpretation errors with Smart Link Mapper (SLM) without compromising on test time

Applications

• Access, Metro, Long Haul and Ultra Long Haul fiber network characterization
• Tier 2 certification of enterprise and data center networks
• Advanced qualification and troubleshooting of FTTH/PON networks.
