ARGUS® 300
The new fiber multifunction tester
THE NEW ONE
The new ARGUS® 300 combines the functions of various fiber measurement devices and xDSL combi testers and is thus equally well equipped for existing and future tasks. It tests the bandwidth of numerous interfaces such as GPON, Ethernet, WLAN, G.fast, xDSL, 10 GigE and many more.
Fiber
The ARGUS® 300 is a full-featured fiber tester that can be expanded in a variety of ways: ARGUS® GPON ONT, xPON-OPM, OTDR, Fiber Inspection Tool, ARGUS® Optical Power Meter and many more.
Copper
Numerous copper test options: Cable multimeter/DMM (U, R, C; RSym, CSym, NEXT, RFL and many more) and oscilloscope (Line Scope, TDR), DSL measurement on copper twisted pair.
Speedtest
The ARGUS® offers numerous high-speed tests up to 2.5 Gbit/s and out-of-service tests up to 10 Gbit/s.
Application areas
The ARGUS® 300 supports rollout as well as maintenance and troubleshooting.
Features
Its robust design combines the requirements for a compact hand-held meter in daily field use with the performance of a high-end tester. The ARGUS tester with touch-screen display enables intuitive navigation of the familiar ARGUS menu structure.
PON Installation Test
Guided PON installation test, ONT simulation, triple-play tests via GPON; display of PON ID in plain text, precise, calibrated attenuation measurement.
xPON OPM
Sel. OPM for GPON and XGS-PON in one; readout of PON ID and XGS-PON ID without reconnection; full-fledged ONT simulation for GPON and XGS-PON; performant IP speed tests up to 2.5 Gbit/s
OTDR
For highly accurate last mile troubleshooting, automatic mode and graphical track analysis event by event.
Fiber
Fiber Inspection Tool (FIT)
USB microscope for optical fiber inspection, optional: autofocus, digital zoom, pass/fail evaluation according to IEC 61300-3-35.
ARGUS® Optical Power Meter (OPM)
Optical Power Meter (OPM) in SFP form factor, live level display, measurement storage in measurement logs and measurement output as QR code, attenuation measurement with OLS.
Optical Fault Finder (OFF)
Simple optical fault location, detects different types of optical faults and determines the distance to each event.
Cable multimeter (DMM)
Copper tests: U=, U~, CSym, C, ISO, RSym, R, I=, LCL, NEXT, RFL, remote kit control, autotest.
Line Scope
Monitoring in time/frequency domain on all telecommunication lines as well as on active lines with up to 200 VDC and 40 Vpp, detection of interferers/interference signals
Copper
TDR
Determination of cable length, determination and detection of short circuits, interruptions, mismatches, stubs, moisture, pupin coils, loose contacts.
DSL measurement on Copper twisted pairs
Measurement on ADSL, VDSL, SHDSL, G.fast 106/212 and bonding.
