Fiber Optic Test Equipment for Sale

In today’s world of communications, bandwidth is the most sought after commodity. The wider the bandwidth, the more and faster data can be sent down the communications media. Fiber optics uses light through glass. Light is at such a high frequency that the bandwidth available for fiber optic communications systems is the greatest of all the communications media available in this day and age. JM Test provides quotes on new fiber optic test equipment units, rental units, calibration, and repair.

Fiber Optic Tester Types

The communications systems using fiber optics have two basic types of test equipment used in the installation and maintenance of these fiber optic networks. The first is the fiber Optic Line Test Set (OLTS). The second is the fiber Optic Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR).

OLTS Fiber Tester

The OLTS in its most basic form consists of a fiber optic light source and a fiber optic power meter. The OLTS kit requires access to both ends of a fiber run. An OLTS kit cannot be utilized to locate any break within a fiber run. With the most basic version of optical line test set, the installer and/or maintainer of the fiber optic network can determine the overall loss of a fiber optic installation. This is then compared to the allowable total loss of the installation. In the advanced versions of these OLTS sets, more than just overall loss can be determined. These advanced types can show loss levels at each connection, as well the lengths of the fiber optic runs and distances between fault or connection points.

OTDR Fiber Tester

The Fiber Optic Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR). The OTDR does not require access to both ends of a fiber run. It can determine the length of fiber runs, loss of the run, length to a break, or length of fiber on a spool. The OTDR can be used with both very short runs, such as within a single building installation and long fiber runs such as between cities. The classic OTDR is a trace, very similar to the traces seen in metallic time domain or frequency domain reflectometers. Most modern OTDR units also have computational power on board to analyze a trace to assist the user in evaluation. Almost all OTDR units have capability of storage of the data and software available to aid in producing test reports for submission as needed.

JM Test Systems offers calibration/verification of accuracy of both fiber optic line test sets and fiber optic time domain reflectometers – to ensure accuracy of measurements. Models we service include Fluke Networks, and Anritsu. Our calibration services include a NIST traceable certificate, archiving, cleaning, and more. JM Test Systems is ISO/IEC 17025 Accredited by A2LA.
