Overview of Features
The OptiFiber ® Pro Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR)
module attaches to a Versiv ™ main unit to make a rugged, hand-
held tester that lets you locate, identify, and measure reflective
and loss events in multimode and singlemode fibers. Typical
maximum test ranges are 35 km maximum at 1300 nm for
multimode fiber and 130 km maximum at 1550 nm for
singlemode fiber. The tester includes these features:

Automatic analysis of OTDR traces and events helps you
identify and locate faults on multimode (850 nm and
1300 nm; 50
μ m and 62.5 μ m) and singlemode (1310 nm and
1550 nm) fiber.

Shows OTDR results as an intuitive map of events, a table of
events, and an OTDR trace.

Gives a PASS or FAIL result based on a test limit that you
specify.

“Document Only” test limit is available if PASS/FAIL results are
not necessary.

Touchscreen lets you quickly navigate through different views
of the results and see more information about events.

SmartLoop ™ test: One test gives you OTDR results for both
fibers in a link.
