LEARN MORE Learn more about the OBR™ and the technology that can make your job a lot easier. APPLICATIONS PRICING DATA SHEET DETAILED PRODUCT DESCRIPTION DISTRIBUTED SENSING WITH THE OBR™ SKEW MEASUREMENT WITH THE OBR™ PRODUCT DEMONSTRATION - ARCHIVED WEBINAR ABOUT OPTICAL TECHNOLOGY

Luna Technologies' Optical Backscatter Reflectometer (OBR) ™ delivers unprecedented inspection and diagnostic capabilities for the fiber-optics industry. Luna’s state-of-the-art OBR™ provides isolation of faults and problems well before final test, saving hours in rework and hard dollars in yield loss. Industry-leading 40 micron spatial resolution with zero dead zone will pinpoint even the smallest contributors to loss: bends, crimps, bad splices, you name it — we find it. The distributed sensing option provides even a more complete picture of what's happening in the system. Discover what you don’t know about your component and what the Luna Technologies’ OBR™ can do for you.

ADVANTAGES:

High resolution OTDR - Resolve individual features with spatial resolution down to 40 microns.

High sensitivity - 70 dB of dynamic range and -125 dB sensitivity.

Long range - Measure up to 500 meters in length with a single connection, single scan.

Single Connection IL and RL - Measure insertion and return loss in a single scan.

Locate loss events - Monitor backscatter levels to isolate losses due to bends, crimps, bad splices, etc.

“Look inside” devices - Use powerful windowing feature to interrogate individual components within a subsystem.

Polarization Tracking - Track changes in the state-of-polarization as light propagates through an optical network.

Intuitive graphical interface - All key data and graphs in a simple, easy to use interface.

Distributed sensing - use standard optical fiber to monitor the changes in temperature and strain

APPLICATIONS:

• Optical subsystem production and verification for amplifier modules, Tx/Rx circuit packs and line cards, laser and modulator packages.
• Single connection optical switch verification.
• Assembly verification including splice and connector location and fidelity management.
• Full system design verification and analysis that can discriminate between individual devices, connectors, fibers, splices and components.
• Component qualification - Incoming inspection and rapid testing of individual optical components.
• Troubleshooting of optical systems and modules during development and production.
• Failure analysis of devices and subassemblies.
• Ultra-high resolution OTDR
