Fiber OneShot PRO takes the complexity out of singlemode fiber testing by analyzing fiber links and measuring faults up to 15 miles in less than five seconds.
Whether you are troubleshooting FTTx, Hybrid Fiber Coax (HFC), fiber links between Central Offices, or working on regional or rural access networks, Fiber OneShot PRO is your first response to fiber trouble.
The simple, one-button test feature means no training and can cut the average job time by 30 percent.
This new class of tester fills the gap between a VFL and OTDR because it easily and quickly locates lossy connections, high-loss faults and breaks in a singlemode fiber network.
This frontline fiber troubleshooter is an essential tool for anyone working with singlemode fiber.
Measure up to 75,459 feet (23,000 metres) of fiber in seconds

When and Where to Use Fiber OneShot PRO
Fiber OneShot PRO provides immediate and in-depth visibility into a carrier network’s singlemode fiber cabling:
• Troubleshooting—video service to fiber customers down?
• Locating breaks or potentially weak network cabling areas—severe bends, high-loss splices and dirty connectors can diminish fiber network performance or cause network failure.
• Locating potential sources of bit error rates—reflectance caused by end-face contamination or poor connections leads to bit errors.
• Analyzing the channel—quickly confirm connectivity by verifying all the links and connections in your channel.
• Long range—Fiber OneShot PRO is perfect for large service provider networks, MSOs, metropolitan areas, rural areas, regional carriers and campus environments up to 75,459 feet (23,000 metres).
• Compatible with all PON wavelengths— Fiber OneShot PRO can troubleshoot fibers using any standard PON wavelength: 1310 nm, 1490 nm, 1550 nm and 1625 nm.
Fiber OneShot PRO is ideal for troubleshooting singlemode fiber networks by locating severe bends, high-loss splices and other causes of fiber failure, diagnosing network degradation and analyzing out-link connectivity.
