Optimizing Passive Optical Network (PON) Testing
Designed to meet testing requirements brought by FTTH networks in general, and PONs/MDUs in particular, the FTB-730 enables testing at 1310, 1490, 1550 and 1625/1650 nm. What's more, EXFO's next-generation OTDR software lets you test through high-port-counter splitters—even 1x64 splitters—with loss levels of up to 21 dB.

In-Service Troubleshooting
The flexibility to add a singlemode live testing port for in-service troubleshooting enables you to fix problematic distribution fiber while the others are still active. Its filtered port blocks incoming transmission signals and its out-of-band wavelength will not interfere in your network. Maintaining an excellent quality of service (QoS), it will ease the troubleshooting testing steps.

Features FTB-730
• Test through high-port-count splitters (up to 1x128)
• Singlemode port for in-service troubleshooting with standard in-line OPM
• Dynamic range of up to 39 dB
• Short acquisition time to speed up deployment process
• EXFO Connect-compatible: automated asset management; data goes through the cloud and into a dynamic database
• iOLM-ready: one-touch multiple acquisitions, with clear go/no-go results presented in a straightforward visual format

Applications
• FTTx/MDU test challenges within PON networks
• Access network testing
