ALM; Fibermonitoring
Light in the darkness
Without fiber monitoring, high-bandwidth services are always at risk of disruption, often leading to significant negative consequences for customers. Once service providers invest in a proactive solution that measures the integrity of their fiber installation, they can efficiently identify disruptions and take immediate targeted action. This significantly shortens repair cycles and prevents unnecessary transportation movements. So, why have many service providers been slow to implement fiber monitoring solutions until now? In the past, test technology was designed for reactive measurement, while proactive solutions often did not meet the cost and functionality requirements of many networks. Now, there is a technology that addresses this urgent need.
Improved service quality
Real-time fiber integrity information for swift fault detection and short repair cycles.
Real-time Fiber Assurance
The ALM serves as a crucial tool for service providers dedicated to delivering superior performance. Engineered for maximum energy efficiency, it provides real-time, in-service fiber monitoring of the entire optical installation, enabling operators to promptly identify if and where issues arise. With the ADTRAN ALM, operators can prevent failed repair attempts, preempt disruptions, and enhance the overall customer experience. This straightforward solution doesn’t require active on-site equipment at the remote location, as it can be configured to passively monitor access services. Eliminating active demarcation further reduces costs and allows the ADTRAN ALM to be deployed even in the most extreme environmental conditions.
A new era of fiber monitoring
What sets the ALM apart is its size and cost. Until recently, this technology was either too expensive, too bulky, or impractical. Now, this small device is seriously changing the game by making effective, real-time fiber assurance for access and metro networks affordable for all operators. With its transparent, service-agnostic monitoring, the ALM provides a fiber monitoring solution for an unprecedented range of applications in both fixed and mobile access. Service providers and businesses can now truly maximize the potential of their fiber assets for more robust, efficient services and gain a crucial competitive advantage.
