BarnDr. combines every essential tool for live event fiber testing into a single 2RU rack unit. Technicians plug their fiber cables directly into the appropriate port \u2014 for inspection (microscope), tracing (VFL), or measurement (optical power meter) \u2014 getting everything they need instantly.<\/p>

This accessibility drastically cuts down on troubleshooting time and, more importantly, reinforces best practices by making it easy to inspect and clean fiber before connecting. By preventing infrastructure contamination, the BarnDr. delivers substantial maintenance cost savings over the long run.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Optical power meter<\/div>\r\n\r\n

Green Lights:<\/h2>\r\n

Good Green lights show good power levels, yellow lights for low but measurable signal, and red for very low power levels. No need to think in dB units if you don\u2019t want to. \r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n

OLED Display:<\/h2>\r\n

\r\nThe meter readout is also shown on a high-vis OLED screen showing precision power levels in several units. Absolute units shown as decibels with reference to one milliwatt(dBm) and actual milliwatts(mW).\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Relative Measurements:<\/h2>\r\n

\r\nHold the button to zero the meter to a reference level, just like zeroing a scale.\r\n <\/p>\r\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Visual fault indicator\/Laser<\/div>\r\n\r\n

Light Up the Bad Fibers:<\/h2>\r\n

\r\n Extremely simple use, just press the button to turn on the laser. Extremely handy to ID fiber lines or to cause breaks and tight bends visible in patch cables to glow. \r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n

The Right Amount of Laser:<\/h2>\r\n

\r\n At 2mW, the laser is powerful enough to get light to anywhere in your venue, but still safe and legal to use.\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Diagnostic Testing Source:<\/h2>\r\n

\r\nConnect to the power meter with a known good patch cable, then zero out the power meter. Now you can test any cable between the two ST connectors on the Heliac-R and take reliable measurements of the cable\u2019s condition. \r\n <\/p>\r\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\r\nCleaning optical connectors are vital because microscopic contaminants like dust and oil on the ferrule end-face cause significant light signal loss, or even permanent damage on the polished surface, leading to poor network performance. Inspection with a fiber microscope is essential to verify cleanliness before mating, ensuring the core is clear of debris. This prevents permanent scratches that cause costly damage, ensuring reliable, high-speed data transmission.\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
