AFC has released the intelligent SLM software to suit the JDSU MTS OTDR family.

“This software assists technicians to use an OTDR more effectively, without the need to understand or interpret OTDR results” Michael Scarano, Senior Product Manager with AFC said.

“Each event is displayed as an icon giving users a schematic view of the entire link known as a SmartLink.

“SLM provides a linear graphical representation of an OTDR trace making it easier to understand fibre fault impairments and locations of these impairments,” continued Michael.

The SLM has applications specifically designed for Fibre-To-The-Antenna (FTTA) and Fibre-To-The-Home (FTTH) network testing.

In addition to the results SmartLink displays, both applications offer a customized user interface for both FTTA and FTTH networks testing.

The FTTH-SLM’s specific algorithm can conduct OTDR measurements through PON splitters enabling it to detect events on either side of splitters.

SLM eliminates OTDR results interpretation, simplifying complexity allowing immediately diagnoses of problems.

SLM also reduces human interpretation error, reduced OTDR testing time, and lower truck rolls and cable waste.

Combining with the SmartOTDR, SLM eliminates the need for OTDR expertise. SLM is enabled on the MTS2000, 4000, 6000, 6000A, and -8000 OTDR platforms.

When using SLM with StrataSync, a cloud-based solution providing asset management, configuration and test data management, an entire test fleet can be managed holistically.

With StrataSync, collecting, analysing and storing test results from the entire network is simplified and as well as providing enhanced workforce management capabilities.
