OTU-8000 Optical Test Unit for the ONMS Rack-based optical test unit for RFTS (Remote Fiber Test System)

The OTU-8000 Optical Test Unit lies at the core of the JDSU optical network management system (ONMS).Combining optical time-domain reflectometry (OTDR) and optical switch technology, a single OTU-8000 unit can automatically test hundreds of fiber links within a 40,000 km2 area. When a fiber fault occurs, ONMS reports the location relative to the nearest landmark.

Applications

• Reduces operational cost by eliminating erroneous dispatches
• Reduces MTTR
• Anticipates service disruption by detecting fiber degradation before service is affected
• Protects the fiber investment by monitoring the long term performance of installed fibers
• Manages the demarcation between networks
• Detects fiber tapping

Key Features

• Wide range of application from FTTx to ultra long haul network monitoring
• Advanced fault location
• Notification by e-mail or SMS
• Small size (2U)
• Dual power feeds
• No hard disk
• Low power consumption
• Modem support
• LAN based firmware downloads
• Supports an additional test module for further extension
