This intelligent PON power meter automatically detects and adapts test parameters to the PON technology in use at the customer premises, thanks to its groundbreaking, patented PON-aware™ capability.

Inspect. Activate. Validate. Reliable FTTH service depends on getting three critical checkpoints right: connector inspection, PON activation and the service path. Crews need clear evidence at each che...

HyperBlazer is a portable 100GE–800GE test solution for data centers and DCI. Validate, reclaim, reuse QSFP-DD, OSFP, OSFP-RHS, coherent optics and cables with iOptics+, turn up DCI links with guided ...

An amplified submarine cable is a subsea optical cable system with optical amplifiers, generally housed in repeaters, positioned at intervals along the route. These amplifiers compensate for signal attenuation as light zips over long stretches of fiber.

A co-propagation optical time-domain reflectometer (C-OTDR) is a test instrument designed to locate fiber faults in amplified submarine cable systems.

Learn why rapid fault localization matters in amplified submarine cable repair and how a repair-ready testing strategy can speed diagnosis, coordination and validation.

What is hollow-core fiber, and why does it matter for ultra-low-latency networks? Hollow-core fiber (HCF) guides light primarily through air rather than solid glass, enabling up to 40% faster signal propagation while reducing some forms of signal distortion and nonlinear effects. In this video, learn how hollow-core fiber works, its key benefits and limitations, and where it can provide an advantage, including data-center interconnects, financial trading networks, AI infrastructure, and high-performance computing. You’ll also discover why testing is critical as HCF moves into real-world networks. Explore the measurements needed to validate hollow-core and hybrid HCF/singlemode fiber links, including latency, loss, reflectivity, bit error rate (BER), chromatic dispersion (CD), polarization mode dispersion (PMD), and overall link performance.
