FTH-5000
Automate optical network monitoring with the most compact rack-mounted, remote OTDR test unit on the market
The FTH-5000 fiber test head, formerly named the OTU-5000 Optical Test Unit, combines optical time-domain reflectometry (OTDR) and optical-switch technology to provide continuous OTDR monitoring of multiple fibers anywhere in the network. A single FTH-5000 unit can monitor fibers of 150km and more occupies only 1RU.
