Ribbon fiber with MPO connectivity has been used for many years as a backbone technology. And, as enterprise networks and data centers migrate from 40G to 100G, MPO connectivity is being extended to end-user equipment to simplify deployment.
However, network operators and cabling system manufacturers require Tier 1 (basic) certification for end-to-end MPO connectivity to verify optical network performance and validate installation warranties. In fact, many tests require proof of certification (specified as “Tier 1” in North America and as “basic” in many other countries).
For these reasons, the MPOLx ​​tester has been developed to be the first optical loss testing solution to meet the requirements of MPO Tier 1 (basic) certification, including the need to check length and polarity and inspect the condition of the fiber end.
With this ability to respond to the demands of professionals with a single system, the MPOLx ​​helps technicians in their daily work by delivering test results in less than 6 seconds for all twelve fibers.
This testing solution leverages VIAVI's innovative technology to provide users with enhanced visibility and control of both the light source and the power meter. Furthermore, MPOLx ​​simplifies fiber inspection tasks by performing pass/fail analysis of both ends of the MPO connection.
Benefiting from the design and performance of the SmartClass Fiber family and the local support of the COFITEL Group, technicians and other professionals in the field will be able to carry out certification tests and troubleshooting tasks in the easiest and most efficient way.
