1 Optical Certifier I Tier-1 Fibre Certifier for Multimode and Single-mode Fibre Cabling Proof of Performance

2 Optical Certifier I Tier-1 Fibre Certifier for Multimode and Single-mode fibre cabling The Optical Certifer I (OC 1) Optical Loss Test Set (OLTS) for multimode 850/1300nm and single-mode 1310/1550nm is the first tablet-inspired solution that has been specifically designed to certify fibre cabling in LAN, campus and data centre networks. The unit s intuitive app-like user interface ensures a minimal learning curve. The OC I fibre certifier offers icon-based functions, instant boot-up, as well as onboard assistance and onboard professional reporting. Certify two fibres at two wavelengths within 2.6 seconds including optical loss of both fibres plus length. Tablet-inspired design With the most user-friendly display in the industry TIA (7-inch high-resolution touchscreen), the OC I fibre certifier delivers IEC unprecedented user experience, and the unit s integrated Wi-Fi/Bluetooth ISO allows for high connectivity. The OC I fibre certifier guarantees EF a full day of fieldwork with 12 hours of battery autonomy and internal memory capacity of test results. Full-fledged units at both ends Both the main and remote units are full-fledged to maximise the efficiency of each technician: TIA Autotest results with diagnostics IEC are displayed on both units at the end of each test. ISO Both technicians can certify the fibre connectors with a fibre inspection EF probe via the large touchscreens available on the both units. The OC I fibre certifier gives remote technicians greater visibility and efficiency. TIA IEC ISO EF Onboard multistandard certification The OC I fibre certifier lets you certify to both cabling and application standards simultaneously with pass/fails results per fibre and per wavelength as well as link lengths. You can therefore certify the cabling (i.e., the physical quality of the fibre and its components such as splices and connectors), as well as the application that the fibre can carry; for instance, IEEE or Fibre Channel. Additionally you can customise any thresholds as per your requirements. Onboard PDF reporting The OC I fibre certifier comes with unique onboard PDF reporting to convert multiple measurements into a single professional report in a format recognised by the industry standards. The reporting includes clear pass/fail certification status against the multiple standards tested, and a summary of the measurements with margins, anomalies, testcord references and verification. This feature serves as a natural complement to our FastReporter 2 PC-based software designed for batch processing of high-count fibre and multiple measurement combinations (e.g., connector certification, loss and OTDR). 2

3 Onboard assistance and diagnosis The OC I fibre certifier provides a foolproof method against test-cord reference mistakes and negative loss thanks to its step-by-step wizard that guides technicians through the referencing and verification process, as per industry standards. The OC I fibre certifier goes even further by diagnosing the possible causes for fail results and gives guidance to fix issues. Flexibility in various test modes The user can choose between different calibration modes (1, 2 and 3 jumpers), single and bi-directional measurement and testing with two units as well as testing with one unit in loop mode. This enables the user to test a variety of applications. Compliant YEARS PEACE OF MIND Built-in Encircled Flux compliancy Each OC I fibre certifier comes with a built-in Encircled Flux (EF)- compliant multimode light source. Furthermore, in order to maximise measurement accuracy and avoid invalid results, IDEAL Networks provides reference-grade test cords in compliance with ISO/IEC standard requirements. Test cords are made from reference-grade connectors, and the fibre used is strictly controlled to ensure proper core size and geometry. For multimode testing, this makes it possible to remain within Encircled Flux template limits at the output of the test cord (in compliance with the industry standards), without the need for an external EF-mode conditioner. These high-quality reference-grade test cords are less fragile and less expensive than EF-conditioned test cords, helping to reduce your overall equipment cost of ownership. Three years of peace of mind for repairs and calibration The OC I fibre certifier has been rigorously tested to guarantee the highest standards of reliability and durability. This is why we feel so confident about offering a warranty and a recommended calibration interval of three years. You can safely use this highly reliable instrument to get accurate test results while significantly reducing your certifier s cost of ownership (your cost of calibration and the related downtime will be divided by a factor of three).

4 Semi-Automated fibre inspection probe Neglecting to clean, inspect and certify connectors can lead to serious, time-consuming problems accounting for up to 80% of network failures. With its two full-fledged units, the OC I fibre certifier lets you certify connectors at both ends of the fibre, in the same workflow as the Tier-1 certification. Accordingly, it is now easy to include connector certification in your regular method of procedures without compromising the efficiency of your technicians. You ll no longer leave any stones unturned or any connectors uninspected! Features USB Wired Semi-Automated R Three magnification levels (100x, 200x and 400x) Image capture Five-megapixel CMOS capturing device Automatic fibre image-centering function Onboard pass/fail analysis Pass/fail LED indicator Powerful connector endface image viewing and analysis software Automatic pass/fail analysis of the connector endfaces Lightning-fast results in seconds with simple one-touch operation Complete test reports for future referencing Stores images and results for record-keeping Inspection Controls Fibre Inspection Area 4

5 Fast track data post-processing with the optional FastReporter2 Optical test-data analysis involves various challenges, whether for loss, OTDR and iolm testing, or connector inspection. Designed for off-line analysis, FastReporter 2 offers reliable data and report management in a user-friendly environment. Challenge 1 Editing multiple measurement files Close your jobs faster. Measurements often require extra processing in order to perform proper analysis, and ultimately document and report jobs appropriately. FastReporter 2 includes a series of powerful tools that automate repetitive operations on an unlimited number of files via batch operations. Challenge 2 Analysing multiple measurement files Wrong limits? Simply recertify. Setting up the wrong limits by selecting the wrong standard or the wrong project is no longer an issue. FastReporter 2 allows you to reset the limits and re-analyse the results to obtain the certification that you need. Instead of redoing tests, you can move on to other projects. Challenge 3 Documenting your work Create your report fast and like a pro. FastReporter 2 generates professional, customised reports containing all test measurements under multiple formats (PDF, HTML and XLS). Your customer can now easily see and validate the quality of your work.
