DISTRIBUTED SENSING WITH THE OBR™

ABOUT OPTICAL TECHNOLOGY


The OBR™ 4400 takes the industry’s first ultra-high resolution OTDR with backscatter-level sensitivity designed for component- and module-level reflectometry to the next level. With a small, easily transportable platform, the capability to “see” reflections out to 2 kilometers with no dead zone, and integrated temperature and strain sensing, the OBR 4400 gives you the ultimate in fiber diagnostics. The OBR 4400 uses swept-wavelength coherent interferometry to measure minute reflections (< 0.0003 parts per billion) in an optical system as a function of length with spatial resolution less than 50 microns. This provides the user with precision reflectometry and unprecedented optical-module inspection and diagnostic capabilities by providing the ability to locate and troubleshoot splices, connectors, fiber bends and breaks, insertion loss points, track polarization, verify PM components and more.

ADVANTAGES:

High resolution OTDR - Resolve individual features with spatial resolution down to 10 microns.

High sensitivity - 70 dB of dynamic range and -130 dB sensitivity.

Long range - Measure up to 2000 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
  • Precision reflectometry
