JDSU has introduced a centralized remote PON test system designed to test point-to-multi-point networks from the central office (CO) using a Web browser. The application is a complementary application to the company’s Optical Network Management System (ONMS) that includes point-to-point fiber monitoring and GIS based outside plant documentation.

The system is designed to enable a technician in the field to troubleshoot any leg of the PON by accessing an optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR) in the CO through a mobile phone or Web browser and NOC personnel to check the current status of a fiber in seconds without having to be trained in the use of an OTDR.
