Highlights
FTTH-iOLM for every part of the PON network*
Bring the power of EXFO’s patented iOLM technology to your FTTH workflows, turning complex OTDR testing into clear, first-time-right results.
FTTH-iOLM brings automated intelligent multi-pulse acquisition modes adapted to your task:
- FTTH Full Link Characterization (ONT→OLT): Complete link analysis from the ONT to the OLT through splitter(s).
- PON Last Mile towards OLT (ONT→Splitter): Fast troubleshooting up to the splitter and splitter continuity validation.
- PON Last Mile towards ONT (Splitter→ONT): Quick testing from the splitter to the customer with ONT detection.
- SFP Safe Mode: Limits the power emitted at all times to avoid any impact on live equipment.
*Available for AXS-130-SM7 and AXS-130-SM8 models.
Optimized display
See key results, test parameters, OTDR trace, linear view of events and the OLM—summarized on a single screen. GUI and touchscreen optimized for landscape or portrait viewing, zooming or editing.
Swap-Out connector
This compact OTDR series comes with a patented Swap-Out connector which can easily be changed, as and when needed, without having to send the test unit to a service center. This ensures optimal performance over time, without undue maintenance costs and downtime. The OTDR's optical connector health can be checked with an onboard diagnostic tool to replace the connector only when necessary.
Your calibration date remains valid, even after swapping the connector. No need to calibrate your unit sooner than planned.
