DiamondWave FiberTest Controller

Are you overwhelmed by the challenges of maintaining service over hundreds or thousands of optical fibers? Calient’s new DiamondWave® FiberTest Controller combines the DiamondWave® FiberConnect and third-party test equipment to create a complete remote fiber test solution. The FiberTest Controller captures the expertise of an expert test equipment user, and presents it to you using a simple management interface. For example, FiberTest Controller-OTDR allows you to remotely create, optimize, schedule and run periodic tests on your entire fiber plant, or subsets of it. FiberTest Controller creates and maintains a centralized database of fiber plant status. When a fault is reported, FiberTest Controller quickly and remotely identifies and isolates the fault, allowing you to dispatch the right people with the right tools to the right place. Your customers’ service uptime increases; your costs decrease. Whether your fiber is in FTTx, wireless or wireline backbones, government or enterprise networks, Calient’s DiamondWave® FiberTest Controller will help you breathe a sigh of relief.
