High Resolution OTDR Testing

Our high resolution OTDRs are used in several industries for various applications. Some are outlined below

Telecom

• Passive Optical Networks (PON) and FTTX: Used for installation, troubleshooting and monitoring of these networks
• Central Office backplane troubleshooting
• Optical connectors manufacturers:  IL and RL testing of short patchcords or multiple connectors

Aviation/Aerospace/Military

• Planes manufacturers
• Helicopters manufacturers
• Gyroscopes
• Optical connectors (harsh environment and military style connectors)
• Ships

Optical fiber manufacturing

• Distributed loss measurements
• Point-like defects
• Plastic Optical Fibers (POF)
• Specialty fibers

IT, Datacenter

• Optical links characterization
• Precise length or time-of-flight measurement
• High speed data transmission

Oil&Gas exploration and exploitation

Optical fibers are finding their way in various areas, such as data transmission (from surface to the Christmas Tree in off-shore fields) and optical sensors. Characterization and troubleshooting are paramount in these harsh environments.

Sensors

Multiple optical sensors are often connected by optical fibers. Our high resolution OTDR can characterize the entire link, and check the integrity of the network.
