Distributed Fiber Optic Temperature and Strain Test Solution

Description

Based on Brillouin scattering technology, the Viavi BOTDR module measures the temperature and strain along an optical fiber cable. The BOTDR module can be set up in a portable platform (MTS-8000) for cable commissioning and routine auditing or in a rackable platform (OTU-8000) for permanent monitoring through the most widely deployed fiber monitoring system worldwide, the ONMSi.

Key Benefits

• Simultaneaous temperature and strain measurement
