As fiber penetrates further into next-generation networks, troubleshooting reports indicate that contamination is the #1 cause of poor network performance. Proactively inspecting and cleaning each connection point is no longer optional but critical to achieving the desired network performance.

JDSU has developed an innovative solution for technicians that promotes today's best industry practices and can be easily incorporated into a technician's workflow. This simple, compact system allows technicians to inspect, clean, and test a fiber in less than half the time taken with other products. Find out more...

You can also download the free white paper, Fiber-Handling Essentials for Next-Generation Networks, which provides some great information on the tools in this kit and how technicians can use them most efficiently.

FiberSentry

A new set of services by fiberoptic.com

Are you interested in real-time performance monitoring, fiber asset management, fiber characterization or other services?

FiberOptic.com is pleased to announce the launch of FiberSentry, a collection of tools and services to make your network more secure, better documented, and easier to service. FiberSentry breaks down into the following:

• Fiber Asset Management: Wouldn't it be nice to track all your fiber assets from a region, to a building, to a room, to a piece of equipment, all the way down to a signal on a fiber? If you have existing Asset Management software, can it pinpoint the location of a fault on a map from OTDR traces? If you want to upgrade your current paper-based or inadequate solution, we have a unique software-as-a-service offering. Let us handle the IT and maintenance. We can even enter your fiber map for you!
  
  
• Network Monitoring: We're now able to provide real-time OTDR monitoring of any fiber network. Leveraging the powerful JDSU OTU hardware and the ONMS backend, your network has never been more protected! Eliminating the need for manual OTDR scans, finding issues before they become critical, and utilizing our expert staff are only a few of the benefits of a performance monitoring system.
  
  
• Network Optimization and Engineering Services: Through our unique partnership with Adtell Integration, we can now offer more traditional network support services, such as Fiber Characterization, Trace Analysis, Spectral Analysis, SONET Testing, and Gigabit Ethernet Testing. Our engineering services now include Network Consulting, Design, Setup and Installation, Upgrade and Data Migration, Management, and Test Planning.
  
  
• Software as a Service: In the current fiber optic marketplace, specialized software can be prohibitively expensive for smaller utilities and campuses. We've created a new model for providing Network Asset Management and Optical Network Monitoring Systems for a low monthly fee, rather than a large upfront cost. Using a combination of these software packages (or your existing asset management system) your network can be fully mapped and fiber inconsistencies (breaks, periodical signal degradation, and OTDR differences) can be tracked and repaired before there is a service outage!
