DTSS B-OTDR for T-BERD/MTS-8000 Platform

Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing of Strain, Temperature and Optical Loss

The portable DTSS on the T-BERD/MTS-8000 platform brings new DTSS technology to the field in a uniquely portable and high powered combination. This product can also be provided in a rack-mounted optical test unit within an OTU-8000 to be combined with ONMSi for a permanent fiber monitoring solution.

Highlights

• Fiber characterization with B-OTDR reveals fiber strain and elongation or temperature.

• Ensure installations are done correctly without strain.

• Reduce and reverse cable strain by locating and releasing it before it breaks the cable or reduces the cable life using the portable DTSS.

Key Benefits

• Simultaneous temperature and strain measurement

• Single-ended solution requiring only one fiber

• Portable and rack mounted form factors

• Portable: Compact, modular and lightweight- no generated required

• Rack-able form factor pairs with Viavi Fiber Monitoring Solution (ONMSi)

Key Features

• BOTDR solution (Brillouin OTDR)

• Temperature & strain threshold monitoring

• Decorrelation of temperature & strain

• Multi-port measurements

• Low power consumption – rack-able version

• Battery operated – portable version

• Remote connectivity

Applications

• Pipeline Monitoring

• Telecommunications cable strain testing for manufacturing, installation and maintenance

• Power cable monitoring

• Structural Health Monitoring (SHM)
