The VIAVI Multi-Fiber MPO-Based Switch family is an automated MPO optical switching platform designed for high fiber count OTDR, FiberComplete PRO, IL/ORL, and MPO certification workflows across hyperscale data centre, FTTH, wireless fronthaul, and telecom transport infrastructures.
DESCRIPTION:
The VIAVI Multi-Fiber MPO-Based Switch family is a scalable optical switching ecosystem engineered to automate OTDR, FiberComplete PRO, IL/ORL, and MPO certification workflows across hyperscale data centre, enterprise, FTTH, wireless fronthaul, metro, and high-density optical transport infrastructures.
Designed for deployment with VIAVI T-BERD/MTS and OneAdvisor field platforms, the MPO switch ecosystem automates sequential fibre testing across high fiber count MPO and simplex fibre architectures while dramatically reducing manual fan-out workflows, repetitive reconnections, and technician idle time.
The platform family is engineered for:
-
MPO OTDR automation
-
high fiber count certification
-
automated bidirectional OTDR
-
FiberComplete PRO workflows
-
MPO troubleshooting
-
hyperscale data centre certification
-
FTTH fibre indexing
-
wireless FTTA/C-RAN validation
-
structured cabling qualification
-
carrier fibre acceptance testing
The MPO switching ecosystem supports:
-
native MPO/MTP links
-
simplex fibre breakout testing
-
MPO trunk certification
-
high-density structured cabling
-
data centre interconnects
-
FTTH access networks
-
C-RAN and FTTA infrastructures
-
enterprise backbone fibre systems
The platform family combines:
-
automated optical switching
-
OTDR integration
-
FiberComplete PRO integration
-
Cable-SLM workflow automation
-
Enterprise-SLM certification
-

-
centralized reporting workflows
into scalable high-density fibre certification architectures.
The integrated switching workflow allows technicians to automate:
-
uni-directional OTDR
-
bi-directional OTDR
-
IL/ORL testing
-
MPO certification
-
simplex fibre qualification
-
high-count cable troubleshooting
through a single automated “Test All Fibers” sequence without manual reconnection between fibres.
