VIAVI 8100‑Series OTDR EVO – 8100D module, designed for high‑performance optical networks, the 8100D OTDR EVO delivers precise and reliable testing for single‑mode standard and hollow‑core fibers across metro, long‑haul, and ultra‑long‑haul infrastructures. With exceptional optical performance and advanced testing intelligence, it provides fast, accurate results—so every job is done right the first time.
Benefits
- Industry leading dead zone performance which allows full characterization of element events on a fiber link 2 meters apart
- Combines OTDR, power meter and continuous light source for added testing flexibility (singlemode wavelengths)
- Avoids the risk of live signal interference or damage to the optical transmitter when performing an OTDR test with instantaneous automatic traffic detection
- Eliminates OTDR interpretation errors with Smart Link Mapper (SLM) without compromising on test time
Applications
- Metro, Long Haul and Ultra Long Haul fiber network characterization
- Fiber Monitoring in and out-of-service
- Fiber installation/deployment certification and troubleshooting for Submarine Cable Networks
- Hollow core fiber test and certification for high-speed networks and data center interconnects*
Key Features
- Up to 50 dB dynamic range and 256,000 acquisition points
- ≤ 65 cm Event Dead Zone and 2.5m Attenuation Dead Zone
- Integrated CW light source and broadband power meter on OTDR port (singlemode wavelengths)
- PON optimized to test up to 1x128 splitter type
- Single-/Dual-/Tri-wavelength versions with 1310, 1550,1625, and 1650nm
- Single connector port for 1310, 1550 and in-service1650nm wavelength
