What it does, how it works

iOLM is an innovative OTDR-based application that uses multipulse acquisitions and advanced algorithms to deliver information on every element in the link with the following advantages:

Provides one-touch, automatic analysis and clear link view display
Minimizes training and avoids misconfiguration via automatic parameter settings and clear go/no-go results
Turns complex OTDR information into simple and accurate analysis via Link-Aware™ technology
Identifies each event on the network and obtains straightforward fiber link status via Optical Link View
Provides prompt diagnosis enabling network issues to be fixed quickly and efficiently
Generates OTDR trace files (.sor)

Dynamic multipulse acquisition

Adjusts test parameters dynamically for ANY link under test using a mix of short, medium and long pulses.

Intelligent trace analysis

Based on the multiple acquisitions and with the help of advanced algorithms, iOLM can detect more events with maximum resolution.

All results in a single view

Results are displayed in an icon-based fiber-link view to quickly assess an event's pass/fail status per standard selected, removing risk of misinterpretation.

Comprehensive diagnosis

Delivers an analysis of failed events and suggests solutions; guides the technicians in fixing the fault quickly and successfully.
