The need to deliver new services, on-time and on-budget, while optimizing your existing network has never been greater. Working with your staff, Adtell Integration’s Network Optimization Services enable you to reduce your time-to-market, lower equipment costs, reduce network downtime and plan for future upgrades. Adtell Integration offers a wide variety of Network Optimization Services including, but not limited to Fiber Characterization, Trace Analysis and Gigabit Ethernet Testing.
Fiber Characterization
Adtell Integration’s Fiber Characterization is a series of tests taken on a fiber optic span to determine the integrity of the fiber, installation practices and performance of a desired transmission rate and/or service. Tests that can be performed include: Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) – Multiple wavelengths, Bi-directional; Power Meter and Light Source – Multiple wavelengths, Bidirectional; Chromatic Dispersion – 10nm wavelength increments, Uni-directional; Polarization Mode Dispersion – Single wavelength, Uni-directional; Optical Return Loss – Single wavelength, both directions.
Adtell Integration’s Fiber Characterization team is staffed to be able to respond to your needs on a timely basis. Analysis of the acquired data and corresponding reports are provided almost immediately after the testing is completed. The Adtell Integration team has the expertise to provide real-time, on-site corrective action when problems are identified. For example, if the fiber plant under test has any deficiencies, the Adtell Integration team is often able to assist you with immediate resolution by either dealing with the issue directly or providing root cause analysis. The result is an optimized network without having to redeploy crews at a later date, adding to the time needed for project completion. Typical problems resolved on-site by Adtell Integration engineers include Reflectance Optimization and Loss Optimization. The number one failure or marginal specification in the field is Optical Return Loss (ORL). Adtell Integration engineers can work with you to isolate and correct or improve the major contributors to ORL while on-site.
Trace Analysis
Adtell Integration’s Trace Analysis Service provides an analysis of all your OTDR traces and quickly provides a clear, concise report detailing all necessary OTDR trace data to properly commission your fiber optic cables. This is especially important when conducting dual wavelength, bi-directional testing of fiber optic cables that results in hundreds or thousands of OTDR trace signatures. Trace analysis can be conducted on any size cable.
