Remote Fibre Test System
The Remote Fiber Test System (RFTS) comprises the RTU-4000 platform with the RTU-4100 OTDR optical test module. The RFTS monitors optical fiber infrastructures in Core, Metro, Access and FTTx/PON networks, improving workflow and reducing Mean Time to Repair (MTTR). The RFTS can be operated in standalone mode or as part of a centralized Monitoring System.
