SmartClass Fiber OLP-88 TruePON Tester

SmartClass Fiber OLP-88 TruePON Tester – The Complete Solution for GPON and XGS-PON Verification

The SmartClass Fiber OLP-88 TruePON Tester from VIAVI Solutions is a high-performance, inspection-ready optical power meter and PON tester engineered for the challenges of next-generation fiber deployments. Supporting both GPON and XGS-PON, the OLP-88 combines power measurement, PON-ID decoding, and fiber inspection in a single rugged, field-ready tool.

Whether you’re activating a new FTTH subscriber, verifying PON split ratios, or performing routine maintenance, the OLP-88 empowers technicians with precise, real-time data to ensure network quality and service reliability from day one.

TruePON Technology – Decode Live Networks with Confidence

Unlike conventional power meters, the OLP-88 features VIAVI’s advanced TruePON technology, which goes beyond basic power readings. It decodes the actual PON-ID and OLT-ID from the live downstream signal and displays detailed insights about the optical network without disrupting service.

With support for simultaneous dual-band testing (1490 nm GPON and 1577 nm XGS-PON), the OLP-88 is an essential tool for today’s mixed-technology PON networks.

Key Features & Benefits

• TruePON Decoding: Reads live downstream optical signals to identify and display PON-ID, OLT-ID, signal strength, and wavelength—ideal for quick, accurate network verification.
• Dual-Wavelength Power Measurement: Simultaneous measurement of GPON and XGS-PON signals helps detect misconfigurations and overlapping services.
• Inspection-Ready: Compatible with VIAVI P5000i digital probe microscope for end-face inspection and contamination detection.
• High-Resolution Color Touchscreen: Easy navigation with a vibrant, glove-friendly interface for use in all lighting conditions.
• Auto-Wavelength Detection: Automatically syncs with VIAVI OLS light sources to identify test wavelength and streamline loss testing.
• Long Battery Life: More than 10 hours of field use with fast charging and sleep modes for energy efficiency.
• Built-In Storage & USB Export: Save up to 1000 test results and export via USB for fast, easy reporting.
• Rugged & Field-Proven: Designed to withstand the harsh conditions of fieldwork—drop-tested, dust-resistant, and highly portable.

Use Cases & Applications

• FTTH/FTTx Network Activation & Verification
• Live GPON/XGS-PON Signal Analysis
• PON Network Troubleshooting & Maintenance
• Split Ratio and Optical Power Level Validation
• Pre-Test Fiber End-Face Inspection
• Data Center and Enterprise Fiber Certification

The SmartClass Fiber OLP-88 is particularly useful during the final stage of FTTH installations, where correct OLT association and signal strength are critical. With accurate power readings and built-in inspection capabilities, it helps ensure fibers are clean, properly routed, and ready for service.

Smart Workflow, Smart Testing

By integrating power measurement, inspection, and TruePON testing into one handheld tool, the OLP-88 eliminates the need for multiple devices, reduces setup time, and enables faster workflows. The pass/fail indicators allow even novice technicians to verify connections confidently.

It’s compatible with VIAVI StrataSync™, allowing for centralized test result management, asset tracking, and remote configuration—enhancing team productivity and quality assurance.
