The optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR) is at the core of fiber optic characterization. Allowing measurements of fiber link attenuation, attenuation coefficient, reflection, splice/connector loss, and point of error, all as part of the fiber distance function.

The OTDR plug-in range is the industry’s fastest, offering the highest performance solution of any OTDR field instrument on the market.

The plug-in’s automation and rapid testing features offer impressive time savings for companies involved in commissioning and locating faults in optical fiber networks.

JDSU offers over forty different field-interchangeable OTDR plug-ins, covering both multimode and singlemode networks, from very short distance (FTTH) to ultra long haul, at any wavelength between 850/1300/1310/1383/1490/1550/1625nm.

To enhance the modularity among the platforms, all of the MTS-5100 plug-in modules can be inserted into the MTS/T-BERD platforms. With the MTS/T-BERD platforms' scalable design, companies can match their testing solutions for their unique network environments by purchasing only the features needed. This platform maximizes scalability, manage ability, price/performance, and flexibility. As optical network technology changes, companies can easily upgrade the MTS/T-BERD platforms. This eliminates the need to purchase a new test set when testing more than one technology, and it reduces training time and costs. The combination of the OTDR plug-in with the MTS/T-BERD platforms offers a lightweight, handheld, an drugged field instrument suitable for any measurement requirements, including 40Gb/s and ROADM networks.

The powerful communication capability of the MTS/T-BERD platforms offers users the ability to remotely control the unit, send data directly to the office, or access the data via internet.

Function of Modules
Rugged field solution	Housed in the field dedicated MTS/T-BERD platforms, OTDR measurements can be performed in Outside Plant (OSP), Central Office (CO), and harsh environmental conditions. A portable, battery-powered instrument, shockproof and drop tested for complete reliability in the field.
Connection checks with VFL and fiber microscope options	Serving as a complementary tool for physical layer testing during installation and maintenance, the VFL and inspection scope check the quality of the front connector and visually locate faults on the fiber jumpers.
Built-in talkset allowing communication along the fiber with data transfer capability	The MTS/T-BERD platforms offer a built-in talkset option allowing communicating between both ends of the fiber while the tests are running. In addition to this function users can send orders or transfer results to the product at the other end for immediate comparison or remote control. Providing a permanent and cost effective solution to communicate where mobiles or telephone lines are not available. The data transfer function allows immediate far end results, performing bi-directional OTDR analysis saving a huge amount of transport time.
Enhanced testing time	Full dynamic range reached in less than 30 seconds measurement time, allows greater productivity in the field and faster return on investment with the reduction of measurement costs.
Easy to use solution from single to multiple measurement tests	An intuitive user interface, including predefined functions, for direct and easy access to the OTDR setup and results reading. One button testing means that technicians need no special training to carry out an OTDR test, suitable for novice and expert technicians. This allows the improvement of field productivity with error risk reduction due to repetitive tasks.
Powerful Pass/Fail link manager	Ability to summarize OTDR results for a complete cable commissioning with pass/failalarm. Saves time with a quick and intuitive overview of the complete set of results with fiberlink and fiber cable management, and provides direct cable report generation.
Test through a PON splitter with the best available performance	With the combination of an impressive acquisition time, event dead zone, and dynamic range, FTTx technicians are able to test through a splitter with unprecedented accuracy using the OTDR Modules. In compliance with ITU-TG. 983.3, the OTDR Modules provide a three-wave length version at 1310/1490/1550nm, expanding its test capabilities to FTTx/PON Provides plice and connector information at the three PON wavelengths Combine a high dynamic range and short event resolution in order to characterize short fiber lengths and measure through the splitters Integrate splitter management data in the table results Enable filtered 1625 nm OTDR modules for in-service testing
Detailed and dedicated cable manager from basic to complex link configurations	According to the link configuration and the cable structure, the user defines and stores information allowing archiving at both ends of the cable with all details including identification, color coding, and fiber numbers. Given the complexity of metro and access networks resulting from rerouting, cable structure can be different at each end, increasing difficulty in documenting both end measurements. With the extended cable management capability, the user saves both end information with each measurement, offering detailed and exact cable documentation. Making it easy to manage the data in order to generate cable reports.
OTDR Bellcore/Telcordia trace format compatible	Complies with GR-196-CORE issue 2 OTDR data standard revision 1.0/1.1/2.0. Also fully compatible with a universal format to exchange files and to export to other tools.
Fiber Cable software solution	APC-based software range, within a true Windows environment, offers complete and detailed generation of professional acceptance reports with bi-directional OTDR results.
