The Optical Frequency Domain Reflectometer
(OFDR) Software is an upgrade option to Luna’s
Optical Vector Analyzer™ (OVA) 5000 system. It
configures the OVA 5000 into a high resolution
reflectometer further extending the utility of the
instrument. OFDR makes finding faults in fiber optic
and PLC components and assemblies quick and easy.
The OFDR provides isolation of faults and problems
well before final test, saving hours in rework and hard
dollars in yield loss. Check interfaces introduced by
multiple bonds, lenses and filters and discover the
solutions to processing errors before they become
problems.
With 20 micron spatial resolution, zero dead-zone, 75
meter device length and a user friendly graphical user
interface, the OFDR option provides a highly sensitive
tool for troubleshooting your networks, components,
and assemblies. Discover what you’ve been missing
and what Luna’s OFDR can do for you.
