What it does, how it works

iOLM is an innovative OTDR-based application that uses multipulse acquisitions and advanced algorithms to deliver information on every element in the link with the following advantages:

  • Provides one-touch, automatic analysis and clear link view display
  • Minimizes training and avoids misconfiguration via automatic parameter settings and clear go/no-go results
  • Turns complex OTDR information into simple and accurate analysis via Link-Aware™ technology
  • Identifies each event on the network and obtains straightforward fiber link status via Optical Link View
  • Provides prompt diagnosis enabling network issues to be fixed quickly and efficiently
  • Generates OTDR trace files (.sor)

MaxTester 715B – last-mile OTDR

The handheld OTDR… reinvented.

The MaxTester 700B series is the first tablet-inspired OTDR line that is handy, lightweight and rugged enough for any outside plant environment. With a 7-inch, outdoor-enhanced touchscreen—the most efficient handheld display in the industry—it delivers an unprecedented user experience. Its intuitive Windows-like GUI ensures a fast learning curve. Plus, its new and improved OTDR 2.0 environment offers icon-based functions, instant boot-up, automatic macrobend finders as well as improved auto and real-time modes.

The MaxTester 700B series is a line of genuine high-performance OTDRs from the world’s leading manufacturer. It delivers EXFO’s tried and true OTDR quality and accuracy along with the best optical performance for right-first-time results, every time.

The amazing 12-hour battery life will never let a technician down, and the plug-and-play hardware options, like the VFL, power meter and USB tools, make every technician’s job easier. Most importantly, the Max-700B series is finally bringing the iOLM, an intelligent OTDR-based application, to the handheld market. This advanced software turns even the most complex trace analysis into a simple, one-touch task.

Ultimately, the MaxTester 700B series is small enough to fit in your hand and big enough to fit all your needs!

The entry-level solution designed for all your testing needs

The MaxTester 715B OTDR/iOLM is optimized for the point-to-point testing and troubleshooting of FTTx architectures, and is ideal for testing short fibers (e.g., inside a CO environment or at FTTA/DAS network installations).

FTBx-730C – PON FTTx/MDU OTDR

The FTBx-730C is the OTDR of choice for field technicians who need to accurately test through splitters and troubleshoot FTTH networks down to the smallest details.

This OTDR is optimized to test through optical splitters and characterize FTTH links. Field technicians can characterize and troubleshoot links up to 100 km thanks to its dynamic range of up to 39 dB.

The FTBx-730C advantage

  • The highest resolution for PON testing and the shortest PON dead zone to find more problems closer to the splitter than any other OTDR.
  • Proven superiority in characterizing double-stage splitters and closely spaced events.
  • User-friendly graphical user interface and Windows 8.1 Pro operating system
  • Multiple applications for file sharing, e-mailing, Skype, remote assistance, etc.
ftbx-735c_iolm_2000x1667

FTBx-735C – metro/PON FTTx/MDU OTDR

The FTBx-735C has been designed to test FTTH/PON networks and longer links in the metro range. This OTDR has 42 dB of dynamic range to test up to 150 km of optical fiber. The PON-optimized performances of the FTBx-735C enable it to fully characterize links up to a 1:128 FTTH/PON splitter ratio.

With its high dynamic range, the FTBx-735C empowers technicians to test optical fibers with greater speed and accuracy.

The FTBx-735C advantage

  • The industry’s highest resolution for PON testing and the shortest PON dead zone to detect more problems closer to the splitter.
  • High resolution for maximum fiber characterization on long links up to 150 km. Ideal to support bidirectional testing.

740C xWDM OTDR Series

This series includes one CWDM tunable OTDR module to cover all 18 CWDM channels from a single port and one DWDM tunable OTDR module to cover DWDM C-Band channels. This solution is available in the FTB-1 V2, FTB-2 and FTB-4 platforms.

The 740C xWDM OTDR series has been designed with EXFO’s renowned high-quality standards to stabilize central wavelength under test, preventing any drift/leakage into adjacent channels, which would otherwise affect other valuable customers.

This OTDR is a scalable solution that can grow with your network by adding channels further down the road, hence allowing CAPEX reduction while covering your current and future needs.

The OTDR’s user-friendly interface lets the technician define a list of favorite channels over the C-Band (DWDM) or CWDM grid (CWDM) for quicker access and a more efficient test routine.

CWDM and DWDM: the answer to future bandwidth growth

CWDM and DWDM are gaining popularity for passive C-RAN or commercial services deployments such as fiber deep, Remote PHY and metro Ethernet in which each wavelength can address a specific site, such as a cell tower. Both CWDM and DWDM approaches are not mutually exclusive and co-exist in hybrid passive networks that feature DWDM over CWDM to maximize fiber capacity.

Use a xWDM tunable OTDR for:

  • Single-ended CWDM/DWDM fiber characterization
  • Validating the continuity and end-to-end loss through MUX, OADM and DEMUX, during construction
  • In-service testing using the client’s wavelengths port—without any downtime or impacting other client wavelengths
  • Troubleshooting and characterization by a single operator from the head-end
