Optical time-domain reflectometer

The OFM1020 is a short-haul optical time-domain reflectometer having spatial resolution measured in cm, zero deadzone, and real-time operation. It is used to test point-to-point fiber-optic links and star or ring networks in aircraft, spacecraft, naval vessels, and other mobile platforms. Link lengths may range from a few feet to several hundred. The device is a commercial off-the-shelf sealed, rugged, explosion-proof, and RF-safe instrument, operational over a wide temperature range. It may be used indoors, on the flightline, or on shipboard under harsh conditions.
