Active Fiber Monitoring

The FiberWatch™ Remote Fiber Test System gives you the ability to test both active and dark fibers. The ability to test traffic carrying fibers, allows you to monitor circuits that carry critical network bandwidth.

Therefore, the direct impact of fiber degradation on revenue generating circuits can be measured and tracked over time. Having the ability to test both active and dark fibers also gives you the flexibility to better deal with a variety of network circumstances. Such circumstances can include the number of "spare" fibers available, the capacity available on fibers that are presently active, increased capacity demands of new services, planned upgrades of terminal equipment and the testing philosophy of the operating company. Coupled with Domains, active fiber monitoring provides a unique approach to customer management as key service level metrics can be tracked over time and provided to your customers automatically.
