Increased Efficiency
Complete automation of the entire testing process for faster and more accurate testing of fiber optic networks. Automated systems can conduct multiple tests simultaneously, reducing the time required for network validation.Reduce Errors & Cost
By automating the testing and installation processes, fiber operators can minimize the risk of human error, leading to more reliable network performance and fewer service interruptions. Long term cost benefits will always negate the initial investment for automation.Data Integrity & Insights
Automated systems from ECSite will collect and analyze data from network operations in real-time, providing operators with insights into network performance with issue mitigation.ECSite will Automate all Tier 1 and Tier 2 Testing Processes including:
Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) Testing
Used to measure the integrity of fiber optic cables, detecting faults, splices, and other anomalies along the cable length.End-to-End Loss Testing
Also known as link loss testing, this measures the total signal loss from one end of the fiber to the other, ensuring it is within acceptable limits.Insertion Loss Testing
Measuring the loss of signal power resulting from the insertion of a device in the fiber optic path, which is critical for ensuring network performance.Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD) Testing
PMD testing is important for high-speed networks to ensure that the fiber optic cable can handle the transmission speeds without significant signal degradation.Optical Spectrum Analysis (OSA)
OSA is used to measure the wavelength and power of optical signals, ensuring that they are within the correct specifications for proper data transmission.Fiber Characterization
This comprehensive testing process includes various tests like chromatic dispersion, PMD, and OTDR to assess the fiber's capability to support high-speed data over long distances.Our Automation is Used in Several Marquee Networks
