MPO Switch for OTDR Measurement
Automated Testing of Multi-fiber Connectors
LASER COMPONENTS recommends the new MPO switch from VIAVI Solutions for quick and easy OTDR testing of MPO multi-fiber connectors. In combination with an optical reflectometer and a base unit such as the MTS-4000 V2, it ensures that all twelve fibers of the MPO connector are tested for their attenuation, as it automatically switches from one to the other. Thus, the fibers no longer have to be tested individually using fanout cables. This makes network testing a lot easier, especially when it comes to structured single-mode cabling in data centers, as well as the testing of MPO cables for FTTH/access networks and mobile phone front pods (FTTA/C-RAN).
Multipath push-on (MPO) connectors are used when many optical fibers have to be connected in very small spaces. An MPO connector usually contains twelve fibers. This not only saves space and weight but also saves installation time and costs.
