AFL is launching the ROGUE OLTS Certifier designed for both enterprise network operators and telecom service providers working in environments ranging from data centers to LANs, access, metro and core networks. The optical design features a test port on each of the paired units to measure insertion loss, return loss and length bi-directionally to industry standards on multimode or single-mode networks.
"The new ROGUE OLTS Certifier represents a collaborative effort with customers who asked for a flexible solution that lowered their costs for testing and certifying networks," said Arun Jain, director of product marketing for AFL Test & Inspection. "We delivered a product that is easy to use, performs multiple tests on almost every network type, and works online or offline."
ROGUE is available with dual bi-directional test ports to certify two single-mode fibers at once, without swapping test cords. All ROGUE models can be paired with an optional Multi-Fiber Switch for certifying MPO terminated cables bi-directionally to IEEE 40 and 100G test limits.
Other features include:
- Support for tier 1 certification to industry standards and custom test limits
- Step-by-step setup wizard to assist with referencing
- Additional dedicated power meter and visual fault identifier
- Included PC- and cloud-based reporting with optional aeRos Pro software for cloud-based workflow integration to remotely build projects, assign jobs, collect real-time results, track progress and generate reports
