CD Plug-In Module (PDF, 1.30 MB)
The CD Plug-in Module for the T-BERD/MTS platforms provides fast and cost-effective CD testing for Metro DWDM deployment.
Highlights
- Compact, lightweight, and cost-effective solution for CD measurements.
- Access to only one end of the link is required for end-to-end testing.
- Combines multiple test functions (CD, OTDR, and Loss testing) in one module reducing the number of testers to carry in the field.
- Rugged design, with no moving parts, exceeds Telcordia recommendations for durability and transport.
Applications
- Dispersion budget measurement to ensure CD limits during installation and system upgrade.
- Troubleshooting legacy fibers before high-speed network provisioning.
- Troubleshooting fiber links by isolating sections which exceed performance thresholds.
Key Features
- Field-installable half-slot module.
- Directly compatible with existing base units.
- Based on TIA 175B Pulse Delay Method with 1310/1480/1550/1625 nm Quad wavelength lasers.
- Quad DFB laser source option for insertion loss measurements.
- FiberTrace viewer PC processing software for performance reports is available complimentary from the Internet.
