Luna’s OBR 6200 series of optical backscatter reflectometers are portable and rugged ultra-high resolution reflectometers with backscatter-level sensitivity for testing short networks deployed in aerospace, naval, data center and industrial applications.

Troubleshoot fiber assemblies in the field to easily locate optical loss events with sub-millimeter resolution. Learn more about highest-resolution OTDR measurements available in the downloadable data sheet.

The OBR 6200 series utilizes optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR) technology to measure distributed return loss (RL) and insertion loss (IL) with high precision and dynamic range. The systems easily locate optical loss events with sub-millimeter spatial resolution.

OBR 6200 optical backscatter reflectometers are rugged battery-powered integrated systems with an intuitive touchscreen user interface, making them ideal for field maintenance applications. The user interface includes screen modes for interactive RL and IL measurement as well as automatic event detection.
