Overview
The OTU-5000 Optical Test Unit combines optical time-domain
reflectometry (OTDR) and optical-switch technology to provide continuous OTDR
monitoring of multiple fibers anywhere in the network. A single OTU-5000 unit
monitoring 72 fibers of 100km and more occupies only 1RU. Learn more
about OTDR Testing and Fiber Testing.
The OTU-5000 works with the VIAVI ONMSi solution to help automate
and improve the monitoring of your network performance.
VIAVI is the worldwide leader in OTDR manufacturing and Optical
Network Monitoring, receiving the coveted Frost & Sullivan
Fiber Optics Test Equipment Market Leader Award for fiber-optic
test equipment six years in a row.
Benefits:
- Ensure
     continuously good service at construction, service activation and beyond
 - Anticipate
     service disruptions by detecting fiber degradation before it affects
     service.
 - Reduce
     MTTR by locating fiber optic faults in minutes instead of hours
 - Reduce
     operational costs by eliminating multiple erroneous dispatches
 - Protect
     investments by monitoring long-term fiber performance
 - Reduce
     construction costs by accelerating test processes and empowering test
     staff
 - Protect
     network integrity and security by detecting and locating fiber intrusion
