Description
Optical Explorer – industry’s first optical fiber multimeter
Fiber optic tester that performs link verification and automated fault tracking in seconds. Empowering frontline technicians to explore further and do more.
An innovative, fast and simple-to-use fiber optic tester, Optical Explorer verifies optical links in seconds and automatically explores further when potential issues are suspected. It’s the first optical fiber multimeter (OFM)—an essential handheld tool for fiber optic technicians (it can be compared to multimeters used by electrical technicians). OFMs quickly measure multiple key optical parameters such as loss (dB), optical return loss (dB), length (meters) and power (dBm). They help technicians verify fiber optic link health and troubleshoot potential issues.
Features
- Displays fiber length, loss and optical return loss (ORL) in under 3 seconds
- On-the-spot detection and location of common causes of failures
- Intelligent: no settings required make it an essential for any frontline technician’s toolkit
- Built-in power checker and light source
- Patent pending EXFO Advisor 5-star rating scale: qualitative approach to assess fiber links
- Click-out optical connectors and “self-diagnosis” let techs perform maintenance in the field
- Rechargeable battery for over 10 hours of use on a single charge
Applications
- Any singlemode link up to 40 km (point-to-point)
- FTTx last mile installation
- FTTx service activation and repair, including in-service testing
- Last mile/access network installation and repair
- Fiber health check-up
- Power level testing
