New SW update 25.4 for all VIAVI OTDR

VIAVI has now made it possible to download new software featuring, among other things, an improved GUI and SmartAcq+ (OTDR) for Optimeter, SmartOTDR, MTS-2000, MTS-4000 V2, and OneAdvisor 800.

With the new interface comes:

  • New SmartAcquisition Plus (SmartAcq+) algorithm for Point-to-Point testing
    “SmartAcq+” automatically applies multiple pulse widths to improve detection of all elements in the fiber link. It generates a consolidated results summary and displays a single OTDR trace seamlessly combining all applied pulse widths.
    CSOR files (merged traces) are automatically saved at the end of the test.

  • User-friendly and clearer menus that make OTDR setup much more intuitive and easy to navigate.

  • Various improvements in Point-to-Point and PON configurations

The new software can be downloaded and installed free of charge via StrataSync, or you can use the links below for manual (USB) upgrade:

See more details below in VIAVI’s introduction to the new interface.

The latest software update includes several usability improvements. Here are the key new functional additions. For more information, please refer to the release notes:

Optimeter

  • Avoid service or customer interruptions by ensuring that no SFPs are shut down during troubleshooting or verification of a potentially active fiber connection.

    • SFP Protect option (ESFPPROTECT) is available in Point-to-Point and Real Time test modes (Real Time test requires the OptiTrakPLUS option).

SmartOTDR

  • Easier and faster configuration of test applications with a new intuitive settings menu layout.

    • Increased visibility – layout optimized for smaller screens

    • All settings on one page, grouped by relevance

    • Enhanced guidance when setting up OTDR

    • Improved Auto-Test mode

    • ExpertOTDR, FTTH-SLM, and Power Meter/Light Source (LTS) apps

  • Avoid service or customer interruptions by ensuring that no SFPs are shut down during troubleshooting or verification of a potentially active fiber connection.

    • SFP Protect option (ESFPPROTECT) available for testing at 1650 nm

T-BERD/MTS-2000, T-BERD/MTS-4000 V2, OneAdvisor 800

  • Easier and faster configuration of test applications with a new intuitive settings menu layout.

    • Increased visibility – layout optimized for smaller screens (T-BERD/MTS-2000)

    • All settings on one page, grouped by relevance

    • Enhanced guidance during setup – especially for bidirectional tests

    • Improved Auto-Test mode

    • Harmonized setup across apps – settings can be transferred between apps:

      • ExpertOTDR, FTTH-SLM, FiberComplete / FiberComplete PRO, Power Meter/Light Source (LTS) apps

      • CD/PMD/AP (OneAdvisor 800)

OTDR, ExpertOTDR application

  • View more events with greater detail and reliability through improved splice event detection based on multipulse and the new SmartAcquisition Plus (SmartAcq+) algorithm for Point-to-Point connections.

FiberComplete/FiberComplete PRO applications

  • Test longer fiber links up to 200 km for metro and long-haul applications.

    • Supports the new 45 dB FiberComplete C-module.

SmartLink Mapper application

  • FTTH-SLM

  • View more events and characterize splitters with greater accuracy and reliability – including high split-ratio splitters (1:256), unbalanced, and tapered splitter PON architectures – with enhanced measurement algorithms.
