JDSU/Viavi – Test Equipment for Fibre Optic Networks and IP Infrastructures

JDSU (JDS Uniphase) was founded in 1979 and grew to become one of the most significant manufacturers of optical communications components and network test equipment worldwide. In 2015, the company was split into two independent entities: Lumentum (optical components) and Viavi Solutions (test solutions). The well-known JDSU test instruments are now developed and marketed under the Viavi brand.

The test portfolio includes OTDR instruments for fault location and quality testing in fibre optic networks, light sources and power meters for fibre optic links, copper network testers, and all-in-one field testers for data centres, carrier networks, and enterprise installations.

Lieske Elektronik stocks selected JDSU/Viavi test instruments and accessories for network service providers, installation contractors, and infrastructure projects. For availability, calibration options, and pricing, contact our sales team by e-mail.

Fibre optic test equipment, OTDR and network testers for professional field service

OTDR – Optical Time Domain Reflectometer Compact and laboratory-grade OTDR instruments (T-BERD/MTS series) for fault localisation, splice verification, and link characterisation in singlemode and multimode fibre optic networks. Used in carrier networks, FTTH rollouts, and data centre infrastructure.		Optical Light Sources & Power Meters Precision optical light sources (OLS) and optical power meters (OPM) for insertion loss measurements in fibre optic links per IEC 61280. Suitable for acceptance measurements at new installations and fault location in existing fibre networks.

Copper & Ethernet Network Testers Handheld network testers for structured cabling (Cat5e/Cat6/Cat6a/Cat8), PoE measurement, certification per TIA-568 and ISO 11801, and WLAN analysis. Suitable for building cabling, data centres, and network rollouts.		Fibre Cleaning Accessories & Inspection Cameras Fibre end-face inspection cameras (P5000i) and automatic fibre cleaning tools for connectors (SC, LC, MPO). Essential tools for clean, low-reflection connections in fibre optic installations and maintenance work.

Why JDSU/Viavi?

Advantages for professional test and measurement in fibre and IP networks

Measurement Precision at the Highest Level

JDSU/Viavi instruments are considered the reference standard in professional fibre optic test and measurement. NIST-traceable calibration, high dynamic ranges, and precise dead zone specifications ensure measurement quality for carrier acceptance tests and internal audits.

Compact Field-Ready Design

The T-BERD/MTS instrument platform combines OTDR, power meter, light source, and network analysis in a single rugged handheld device. IP54 protection rating and shock-resistant housing for demanding fieldwork on construction sites and in equipment rooms.

Broad Standards Compliance

Instruments and procedures comply with IEC 61280, TIA-568, ISO 11801, and other internationally recognised standards – a prerequisite for certification measurements at new installations and acceptance testing by network operators.

Long-Standing Market Presence

Decades of experience in fibre optic test and measurement and a globally installed instrument base make JDSU/Viavi the preferred choice in tenders and framework contracts for network service providers and infrastructure operators.

Frequently Asked Questions about JDSU / Viavi

Answers for procurement and test equipment planning

What is the difference between JDSU and Viavi? JDSU (JDS Uniphase) was split into two companies in 2015: Lumentum took over the optical components division, and Viavi Solutions assumed the test solutions business. All well-known JDSU instruments (T-BERD, MTS, OLTS, P5000i) have since been developed further under the Viavi brand. These instruments are often still referenced under the JDSU name in the trade.

Which JDSU/Viavi OTDR is suitable for FTTH installations? For FTTH rollouts, the Viavi SmartOTDR or the T-BERD/MTS-2000 platform with appropriate OTDR modules for 1310/1490/1550 nm is recommended. These instruments reliably detect splitters, fusion splice points, and connector losses in PON networks, and generate standards-compliant trace files for documentation.

Does Lieske offer calibration services for JDSU/Viavi instruments? Lieske Elektronik is a distributor of JDSU/Viavi test instruments and can, upon request, provide contact details for authorised Viavi service centres for repair and NIST-traceable recalibration. For calibration certificates and service contracts, please contact our sales team directly.
