Remote fibre test and monitoring solutions
Summary
Automated, remote intelligence allows for the ability to scale high quality standards and speeds without adding commensurate expense and workload. The advanced software library for the cards provides operators with the industry’s most diverse range of uses cases via an element-integrated iOTDR solution, potentially saving NEM R&D teams 2–3-person years of development time. All fibres can be graded by the cable, customer, network location down to the root cause fault type – turning mountains of raw data into actionable insight. “With these additions to the ONMS line, VIAVI innovation continues to lead the industry in helping customers scale construction and maintain performance of critical fibre infrastructure to alleviate years of workload on network staff,” said Kevin Oliver, Vice President and General Manager, Converged Instruments and Virtual Test, VIAVI. VIAVI offers two types of optical test heads that work in tandem with ONMSi and NITRO software to enable customers to optimise flexible OTDR capabilities, rack footprint and price point: OTU-8000 and OTU-5000.
