VIAVI has released updated software for the Optimeter, SmartOTDR, T-BERD/MTS-2000 and -4000 V2.

The latest software release includes several usability enhancements, these are the main new functional additions, for more information please see the release notes:

 

FiberComplete PRO for T-BERD/MTS-2000 V2, -4000 V2, and OneAdvisor 800 Fiber

True bi-directional fiber certification solutions to improve fiber technician efficiency, driving operational excellence with FiberComplete PRO (formerly TestPRO)

 

Guided and automated referencing for MPO test cables

  • Avoid risk of human errors with animated icons to instruct/guide with the referencing process
  • Reduced setup time and increased result accuracy with integrated IL and ORL referencing for MPO test cords

Support for high fiber count projects with integration of Cable-SLM and MPO switch module with FiberComplete PRO

  • Track large projects with no need for separate spreadsheets, support for fiber counts up to 9996 (833 x 12MPO)
  • Reduce test time for multi-fiber and MPO bundles with automatic sequencing of bi-directional test (including TrueBIDIR OTDR analysis) with no manual switching between fibers
  • Manage project progress with Cable and SmartGrid views showing pass/fail status

MPO polartity mapper

  • Complete work on time and avoid wasted test sequences by mapping and confirming the MPO polarity of a link (A, B, C) prior to beginning test
  • Enable rework of multi-fiber and MPO links while still on-site to avoid future site revisits

Instruments/mainframes (Optimeter, SmartOTDR, T-BERD/MTS-2000 V2, and -4000 V2)

Secure you instrument with pincode protection option

  • Instruments are securely locked if lost or stolen, preventing further use or access to stored data/information

Modernized Job Manager

  • Faster familiarization and easier switching between test functions and optical fibers
  • Real time view of work/job progress via Mobile Tech App

OTDR

True Bi-directional fiber certification for T-BERD/MTS-2000 V2 and -4000 V2

True bi-directional fiber certification solutions to improve fiber technician efficiency, driving operational excellence with FiberComplete PRO (formerly TestPRO)

TrueBIDIR software option adds real time on-board bi-directional OTDR result analysis (patented)

  • Immediate result allows you to perform corrective actions while you are still on site, reducing future site revisits
  • Improves event location and measurement accuracy
  • Provides greater detail by finding events hidden by uni-directional OTDR testing
  • Gives ‘true’ event loss to immediately assess ‘gainers’ and false negative events
  • No additional post processing effort required

Data exchange via instrument test port and fiber under test (patent pending)

  • Synchronize instruments to eliminate test configuration errors and reduce instrument setup time
  • Eliminate file transfer time and effort with automatic retrieval of test results from remote/far-end instrument
  • No additional communications media required (WiFi connection, Smartphone tethering, USB, etc.)

Avoid site revisits and retests which lead to poor KPI with auto file naming and storage to guarantee correct results pairing for valid bi-directional analysis

Reduce post processing effort with on-board (.pdf) report generation

Remove time, complexity and cost when certifying multi-fiber (MPO) cables, automatic sequence of 12 x FiberComplete (IL, ORL & OTDR) measurements including auto-detection of cable polarity type and cable mapping.

Test Process Automation

Management of FiberComplete workflow into StrataSync, Mobile Tech App and Job Manager
