Dynamic Range* (typical): 1310nm ±20nm , ≥ 36dB 1550nm ±20nm , ≥ 34dB Deadzone**(minimum value): ≤ 0.8m OTDR Key Parameters Pulse Width: 3ns, 5ns, 10ns, 30ns, 50ns, 100ns, 200ns, 500ns, 1µs, 2µs, 5µs, 10µs, 20µ Measurement Time: 5 secs. to 5 mins., real-time Refresh Rate: 4 times/sec As the demand for bandwidth continues to soar, with higherthan-ever smartphone and streaming video usage, cable operators must face the challenge of deploying fiber deeper into the network. Although it is contested whether any single technology is best for the task, one thing is clear: operators will continue installing both fiber and cable into the foreseeable future. And because efficiency, speed, accuracy, and reliability metrics are key for increasing workforce productivity, the natural conclusion is simple: cable TV installers require a high-performance, efficient, yet affordable test equipment for installing future networks such as FTTx, RFoG and RF PON. Brought to you by Deviser Instruments Inc, the new AE1000 OTDR is the next generation cable TV installation meter on the market. The AE1000 integrates digital and analog cable TV (RF) testing, metallic TDR testing and optical testing, including a fiberscope, OTDR, OPM, VFL and LS, future-proofing the investment in test equipment, regardless of which technology is determined to be best. The AE1000 enables faster, more efficient installations with only a single instrument, producing substantial savings to the MSO. Key Features • OTDR performance specifications comparable to bigger and more expensive OTDRs – optional up to 3 wavelengths, perfect for FTTx, RFoG and RF PON installation • FiberPath™ and Autotest: FiberPath™ analyzes the OTDR traces to clearly display the map of the fiber link and identifies possible faults, reducing the need for OTDR trace interpretation • Digital QAM and analog measurements and constellation display for Cable TV installation verification • Combines optical and metallic tests: OTDR, VFL, OPM, LS, Cable TV (RF) Test, TDR, and Fiberscope • Fiberscope integration with FiberSpot software for identifying dirty spots of fiber connectors • Easy Web-Based back office integration FiberPath™ FiberPath simplifies the interpretation of OTDR traces by identifying link elements and displaying the link map in an easy-to-understand format. Experienced and inexperienced technicians alike will appreciate the simplified display. Fiber Inspection Probe The majority of performance faults in fiber-optics are caused by contaminated connectors. Keep fiber endfaces and bulkheads free of dirt with the AE1000’s built-in fiberscope application and automatic Pass/Fail analysis. OTDR The AE1000’s high-performing OTDR supports up to three wavelengths and is the ideal solution for testing the fiber in RFoG and FTTx applications. The OTDR can identify and locate link impairments and measure the insertion loss by LSA, 2Pt and 4Pt methods. The unit also measures optical return loss (ORL). Cable TV (RF) Measurements The cable TV measurements included in the AE1000 include MER, PRE & Post BER measurements and BER statistics for verifying proper installation of cable TV services. Optical Measurements The AE1000 includes a suite of optical measurement tools, including a power meter, laser source, and visual fault locator (VFL). The unit is available in numerous wavelength configurations for ensuring proper levels in networks such as RFoG and FTTx. TDR Measurements The TDR can easily identify and locate possible impairments, helping to gauge the quality of coaxial cable used in a Cable TV network.
