PR Newswire (US)
MILPITAS, Calif., Dec. 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- JDSU today
introduced a field-interchangeable, single-slot optical time domain
reflectometer (OTDR) module for the T-BERD/MTS-4000 platform. The
module supports cost-effective deployment and support of metro and
FTTx networks by combining OTDR, power meter and laser source
capabilities in a single instrument. With all the benefits of the
T-BERD/MTS-4000 -- including a large trans-reflective touch screen
display, visual fault locator (VFL) and inspection scope -- the
metro-access (MA) mid-range OTDR adds these important performance
benefits: -- a stabilized light source and power meter option for
insertion loss measurement, to help reduce the number of tools in
the field; -- PON-optimized dynamic range for testing through
splitters; -- the ability to perform in-service testing -- all OTDR
lasers are coupled into one port so a separate port is not required
for live fiber testing (a filtered version tests live fibers at
1625 nm or 1650 nm); -- traffic detection that will alert the user
if they have connected to a live fiber and inhibit the transmission
of any test pulse down the fiber; and -- an automated bend
detection mode that enables immediate identification and location
of macro and micro bends. "JDSU continues to bring to market
innovative fiber field test solutions that meet the performance
requirements of FTTx, CWDM and triple play services being deployed
worldwide," said Enzo di Luigi, general manager in JDSU's
Communications Test and Measurement business segment. "As a result,
our T-BERD/MTS family of products has become the industry-leading
solution for field service teams worldwide and our OTDRs are
already successfully deployed at many of the world's largest
telecom operators." The MA mid-range OTDR addresses the need for a
more versatile solution that keeps pace with the growth of metro
access networks. JDSU provides a highly modular and scalable
platform able to handle many other applications such as CWDM OSA,
xDSL/Copper and triple play. About JDSU JDSU (Nasdaq: JDSU; and
TSX: JDU) enables broadband and optical innovation in the
communications, commercial and consumer markets. JDSU is the
leading provider of communications test and measurement solutions
and optical products for telecommunications service providers,
cable operators, and network equipment manufacturers. JDSU is also
a leading provider of innovative optical solutions for
medical/environmental instrumentation, semiconductor processing,
