iOptics
iOptics test application provides a quick assessment of the proper
operation of an optical transceiver before using it in a network or test
environment. The validation is done by running sub-tests in addition to
monitoring transceiver power consumption and temperature. Result and
verdict are reported for each sub-test and monitoring task. Transceiver’s
manufacturing information is also automatically collected.
A fiber loopback patch cord is required to perform the test with applicable
attenuation included to protect the optical device. Bidirectional (single
fiber) transceivers are not supported since the iOptics test requires a
loopback.
