The FTB-100 Mini-OTDR is a dedicated optical time domain reflectometer that
characterizes a fiber-optic span, usually optical fiber sections joined by
splices and connectors. The optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR) provides an
inside view of the fiber, and can calculate fiber length, attenuation, breaks,
total return loss, and splice, connector and total losses.
The FTB-100 Mini-OTDR supports EXFO’s extensive line of OTDR test modules,
which offers all the features required by both intensive and occasional OTDR
users.
The Mini-OTDR:
* offers impressive dynamic range with
short dead zones.
* performs quick acquisitions with low noise levels to
ensure accuracy.
Low-Loss Splice Location:
*acquire OTDR traces made of up to 128 000
points that provide a sampling resolution as fine as 4 cm.
* include a light
source and can also include an (OPTIONAL) visual fault locator.
The Mini-OTDR:
* can include an (OPTIONAL) power meter for more test
possibilities.
* is available with a color or monochrome touchscreen.
*
is splashproof and rugged for outside plant testing.
Trace Acquisition Modes:
(The OTDR application provides the following
trace acquisition modes:)
* Auto: Automatically calculates fiber length, sets
acquisition
parameters, acquires traces, and displays event tables and
acquiredtraces.
* Advanced: Offers all the tools needed to perform integral OTDR tests
and
measurements and gives you control over all test parameters.
* Create Ref./Template: Tests fibers and compares the results to
a
reference trace that was previously acquired and analyzed. This
allows
you to save time when testing a large number of fibers. Reference
trace
documentation is also automatically copied to new acquisitions.
