Why is Fiber Testing Important?

With the boom in demand for fiber infrastructure service providers and contractors are under significant pressure to deploy fiber quickly and cost-effectively, while ensuring a high quality, reliable installations. No test or limited test often looks like a good way to reduce deployment cost and time however, it is proven that a lack of testing leads to activation delay, excessive troubleshooting, and loss of revenue. Proper testing during construction and installation phases is the only way to certify the fiber link and provide a record of compliance to ensure successful first-time turn-up and reduce unnecessary truck rolls or repeats.

Optimeter provides everything a new fiber tech needs in one simple and fast solution. In just 1 minute with a single fiber connection and 1 key press any tech can completely validate and certify a link to ensure smooth service installation and activation

    • Eliminates manual settings errors leading to incorrect event/fault diagnosis and future dispatches.
    • Fault-finding test feature gives the tech a simple but powerful troubleshooting tool.
    • Diagnose any fiber issue immediately while still on-site and determine ownership of the repair.
  • Test Rapidly. Share Results Instantly

    • Optimeter takes less than one minute to certify fiber links and reduce the number of borderline installs and early install failure rates.
    • Light power level(s) and fiber link map are captured and saved automatically on test completion in a single test report organized by job number.
    • With the VIAVI Mobile Tech App, test reports can be wirelessly transferred to a smartphone or tablet and further enhanced with geolocation data, then automatically uploaded direct to VIAVI StrataSync Test Process Automation suite for KPI dashboarding and reporting.
  • Designed with the user in mind

    • The Optimeter comes with a “glove” case as standard for increased portability and to protect it from scratches and damage while keeping essential accessories (cleaner, launch cable, inspection scope, etc.) organized, accessible, and secure when a tech is on the go.
    • An innovative launch cable that can remain connected to the Optimeter at all times reduces the risk of damaging the test connector. Optimeter also systematically checks the condition of its test port and test lead to prevent any bad measurements or inaccurate results.
  • Work Efficiently

    Allows your team to deliver expert-level test results and close projects on the first try, every time. TPA is a closed loop test system that optimizes workflows, eliminates manual, error prone work and automates immediate data reporting for job close out, team progress updates and network health analytics. Execute jobs efficiently to ensure high quality network builds, rapid turn-up/activation and enhanced operational visibility.
