Optical Backscatter Reflectometer

OBR4600 mainframe providing measurement lengths of 30 meters and 70 meters (resolution of 10 micron and 20 micron respectively), over the wavelength range of 1525-1610 nm.

Key Features:

• Easily locate, identify and troubleshoot macro-bends,splices, connectors and breaks
• Locate Insertion Loss points at every point in the network or assembly – eliminate cut-back
• Look inside components to evaluate each interface forRL and IL
• Measure 30 m with 10 μm resolution in less than 7seconds
• Continuously measure a 1 m segment at up to 3 Hz
• Test and troubleshoot short-run networks (less than 2 km)
• Automate pass/fail verification of fiber assemblies
• Monitor distributed temperature and strain profiles along network or inside a component or module
