become more complex and diversified. Fully adapted to this new reality, The FTB-300 Universal Test System (UTS) provides a simple, yet efficient,way to perform multiple advanced test operations in outside plant installation,maintenance, and troubleshooting. The unique FTB-300 UTS combines a series of high-performance test modules in a powerful platform. The test set simultaneously houses up to three field-interchangeable modules. Its PC architecture runs the Windows 95 operating system as well as a complete test application software to provide maximum processing capability right where you need it the most: in the field. The power of a UTS lies in its capability to evolve with technology and your needs; therefore, the FTB-300 UTS provides you with the widest selection of test modules available.From power readings and OTDR testing to optical switching and optical spectrum analysis, the FTB-300 UTS does it all. And the family of plug-and-play modules continues to grow with the continuous introduction of new test modules. Modularity Means Flexibility Customized to your needs The main advantage of the FTB-300 UTS is that the end user can customize it to suit the work environment. Field-interchangeable modules allow the operator to modify the test tool capabilities in a matter of seconds, and as many times as required in a days work. A sound long-term investment The open architecture of the FTB-300 UTS provides obvious cost advantages since a single test system is shared between many applications.Without changing the platform, the test set can also be modified with new modules or software upgrades to provide the latest technologies at a fraction of the cost. The FTB-300 UTS really reduces the strain on the test tool budget. A rugged, portable field unit The FTB-300 UTS is designed to resist the rigors of the worst field conditions as well as stand the test of time. The unit offers shock-proof casing to withstand drops and vibrations. The large, sturdy touchscreen is resistant to shock,water, dust, and common chemicals. The outershell is waterproof with sealed joints, and door panels protect connectors, ports, and the floppy disk drive. The FTB-300 UTS also complies to all industry standards.
