Therefore, the new FTTh-SLM variant helps eliminate complexity and offers support to technicians of any experience level by providing them with a customized and fully automated application.
FTTh-SLM addresses the different workflows, terminology, and optical components found in optical deployments. By using intuitive icons and labels to represent events and components, such as splitters, it facilitates understanding of the results.
When working with FTTH/PON architectures, reliable event detection can be challenging. To mitigate this complexity, FTTH-SLM offers a feature called Smart Acquisition, which automates the use of multiple tests and pulse widths to accurately characterize sections of an FTTH plant. Traces are then combined into a single SLM view with an event table and OTDR traces.
Therefore, FTTh-SLM provides numerous benefits: ease of interpretation of results, elimination of configuration errors, minimal need for training (automatic test and storage of results after pressing a button), accuracy in event detection (multiple pulse widths per wavelength) and simple certification (cloud-based or SOR & PDF report generation).
Field-installable, the SLM software applications can be used with all VIAVI OTDRs and help simplify the work of professionals in commissioning and maintenance processes of any fiber optic network.
The COFITEL Group also supplies 30-day demo licenses of SLM (FTTh, FTTA or Enterprise-SLM) for installers who wish to test the capabilities of these VIAVI software applications.
