Fluke OptiFiber® Pro OTDR Family
Designed for Enterprise, Datacenter, Outside Plant, and PON Fiber
As fiber networks evolve, the need to test in more locations has increased. OTDRs are now needed for:
- FTTx
- Enterprise
- OSP
-
PON
- POLAN
Many OTDRs designed for fiber troubleshooting are designed for carriers and contain cumbersome and complicated features. The OptiFiber Pro OTDR family is the first class of OTDRs that is built with features and usability for both enterprise network engineers and cable installers working in both enterprise and OSP environments.
Smartphone User Interface
Most OTDRs are designed for a myriad of applications, causing the user interface to be difficult to navigate and interpret. OptiFiber Pro combines the latest “gesture-based” interface technology with a capacitive touchscreen to deliver the most innovative and user-friendly OTDR.
Advantages:
- Single-touch tap and swipe control for selecting and scrolling menu items
- Multi-touch pinch to zoom for easy magnification control on a graphical fiber trace
- Task-focused design to reduce back and forth navigation through screens
- Capacitive touchscreen eliminates the need to recalibrate unlike legacy touchscreens
- Context sensitive on-screen help that gives users additional details or problem resolution suggestions
At Home in the Datacenter
Driven by server virtualization and multi-gigabit links between servers, networks and storage, the datacenter architecture employs more patch cords and dense topology connectors, rendering carrier-class OTDRs with long dead zones ineffective. OptiFiber Pro not only makes fiber deployment in datacenters possible, but provides the highest level of accuracy for quick problem resolution.
With a simple one-touch selection, users enter DataCenter OTDR mode - without setup time for fine-tuning as needed in legacy OTDRs. DataCenter OTDR mode automatically detects OTDR parameters - end-detection algorithms, pulse widths, etc - without getting confused by the short links or number of connectors.
Advantages:
- Ultra-short event and attenuation dead-zones precisely locates events and faults on fiber links in the Enterprise
- DataCenter OTDR™ mode automatically sets the configuration to quickly test datacenter fiber
- The EventMap feature depicts fiber events in a way that requires no trace analysis expertise
Other Key Features
Extremely short event and attenuation dead zone for the Enterprise
The OptiFiber Pro leverages the most sophisticated optical technology to provide the shortest event dead zone (0.5 m typical for MM) and attenuation dead zone (2.2 m typical for MM and 3.6 m typical for SM) of any OTDR. This technological advancement allows OptiFiber Pro to detect and measure closely spaced faults where no other OTDR can in today’s connector-rich datacenter and storage area environments.
Two second trace per wavelength
Another breakthrough with OptiFiber Pro is the data acquisition speed. While in Quick Test mode, a complete set of data is acquired in as little as two seconds per wavelength. OptiFiber Pro then analyzes the data and displays it as an EventMap, Table or Trace. The end result is less time spent testing and more time performing other tasks.
