To provide the right speeds to the right customers, communications service providers (CSP's) are deploying next gen and legacy passive optical network (PON) technologies by overlaying multiple new wavelengths on existing fibers. This brings new challenges for quick and accurate testing during the critical activation phase. CSP's need power meters capable of testing next gen and legacy PON technologies, and their field teams need to be sure they are testing the right technology.
The PPM-350D was designed to tackle both technologies head-on with unique PON-aware technology. Developed in partnership with a Tier one CSP, the PPM-350D PON Power Meter automatically detects and adapts test perimeters for the PON technology in use at the customer premises, eliminating costly guesswork by field technicians. As a result, customer service providers can deploy faster, cut activation costs and boost customer satisfaction.
