Optical bandwidth tester

Communications News, March, 2004

Used to verify the performance of multimode fibers for gigabit networks, the OBW-2 fiber-optic bandwidth tester can test legacy fibers and laser-rated fibers to determine their suitability for high-speed networks, including Gigabit Ethernet, 10-Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel. The optical instrument features a digital signal processing that uses a PC to control the instrument and calculate the bandwidth of the fiber, simplifying its operation and reducing its cost. The model OBW-2 allows testing of 50/125 and 62.5/125 fibers at frequencies up to 2.5 GHz and lengths up to 10 km, at both 850 nm and 1,300 nm, making it appropriate for all current multimode fibers.--Advanced Fiber Solutions
