Monitoring the health of a fiber network from remote to ensure serviceability and quality has become essential. A fault could go unnoticed and create customer dissatisfaction and business loss. Fault monitoring provides the means to be apprised of all faults and breaks in the fiber transports and to get them attended to as per SLAs. Fiber monitoring is 100 to 300 times faster than traditional monitoring without sacrificing location diagnostic accuracy for this use case that necessitates a rapid response to diagnose an intermittent, physical root cause of link flapping. This system and algorithm innovation accelerates the detection window for a transient loss event by using the continuous, real time acquisition time to focus detection on a few data points. Upon discovery of a transient loss, accurate location analysis utilizes a full OTDR data set. Successful troubleshooting of intermittent physical fiber faults causing network route flapping will transform your troubleshooting process and eliminate a significant cause of burst error conditions.
