CORNING, N.Y., June 27, 2001 (PRIMEZONE) -- Bit2Pixel (a subsidiary of Petra Technology Group) announced today the first fully integrated Web-based quality assurance system for fiber networks.
This software product manages OTDR (optical time-domain reflectometer) data files for worldwide global telecommunications networks. The software stores, retrieves and integrates an unlimited number of optical fiber test files, enabling fast, accurate quality control. The Bit2Pixel product is the first vendor-independent OTDR software in the world, which means that it can read and integrate Bellcore files from any of the six major OTDR manufacturers.
Bit2Pixel's FiberStor was originally designed for companies that provide end-to-end, nationwide data services to local service providers. Those companies must annually test thousands of miles of fiber in high-speed international backbones. Bit2Pixel's software gives their clients an unparalleled ability to accurately manage their networks' performance.
Companies that want one place to store, analyze and report all of their OTDR test data can use FiberStor to save reference or calibration tests to compare with real-time field tests, compare performance over time for the same route/span, and compare individual fibers test results, etc. FiberStor is the first commercially available product that satisfies the needs of technicians, network administrators, field support and network sales.
Visit our booth (No. 2427) at the National Fiber Optics Engineers Conference (NFOEC) from July 8 through 12 at the Baltimore Convention Center for a personal demonstration, or click on http://www.bit2pixel.com/ for detailed product specs.
