Visible solid-state laser adopts telecomms design
The FCD488 is the first telecomms-based visible solid-state laser designed for biomedical, industrial and semiconductor applications.
The VSRe module is geared to FTTx/access networks, the MR to metro/regional networks and the LR to core networks.
All three OTDRs were developed to help telecommunications and cable operator field teams, system vendor field installation and service teams, and contractors install and troubleshoot fibre networks.
Each OTDR provides unique, one-button automated bi-directional OTDR testing that helps save time and reduce errors in the field.
Together, the OTDRs provide a combination of industry-leading dynamic range and dead-zones, empowering best-in-class optical performance.
"JDSU continues to bring to market innovative fibre field test solutions that meet the performance requirements of next-generation fibre networks being deployed worldwide", said Enzo di Luigi, General Manager of JDSU's fibre optics Communications Test and Measurement group.
"As a result, our MTS/T-BERD family of products has become the industry-leading solution for field service teams worldwide and our OTDRs are already successfully deployed at many of the world's largest telecom operators".
The OTDRs can be combined with all required connection check options available for the T-BERD/MTS-6000 and T-BERD/MTS-8000: connector inspection (VIP), end-to-end connectivity and trace faults in patch panel cabling (VFL), patch cord testing (LTS), power measurements (LTS) and optical return loss (ORL).
